Operator, can you help me? |
|
Help me if you please |
|
Give me the right area code |
|
And the number that I need |
|
My rider left upon the Midnight Flyer |
|
Singing like a summer breeze |
|
I think she's somewhere down south |
|
Down about Baton Rouge |
|
But I just can't remember no number |
|
A number I can use, directory don't have it |
|
Central done forgot it |
|
Got to find a number to use |
|
Trying to check out her number |
|
Trying to run down her line |
|
Operator said that's priviledged information |
|
And it ain't no business of mine |
|
It's flooding down in Texas, the poles are down in Utah |
|
Got to find a private line |
|
She could be hanging round a steel mill |
|
Working in a house of blue light |
|
Riding a getaway bus out of Portland |
|
Talking to the night |
|
I don't know where she's going |
|
I don't care where she's been |
|
Long as she's been doin' it right |
