Mr. Operator

(album: Gluggo - 1973)

Mr. Operator, can you call me later?
Didn't hear a word that you said
Waiting for connection in the right direction
Tired of getting out of my bed

Ain't there nobody home
When I pick up my phone?
Oh, Mr. Operator
Can you call me later tonight?

Mr. Operator, can you call me later?
Will the party call me collect?
Getting kinda risky, drinking too much whiskey
'Fore too long, I'm gonna be wrecked

Ain't there nobody home
When I pick up my phone?
So Mr. Operator
Can you call me later tonight?

Mr. Operator, Mr. Operator
Won't you get my number tonight?
Mr. Operator, can I call you later?
Can I call you later? Can I call you later?

Mr. Operator, can you call me later?
Didn't hear a word that you said
Waiting for connection in the right direction
Tired of getting out of my bed

Ain't there nobody home
When I pick up my phone?
So Mr. Operator
Can you call me later tonight?
