[Lyric] Telephone Operator (Howell Dawdy)

Well my cars outta gas
My skateboard's broke
My mountain bike
Has got a busted spoke

Can’t take a plane
'Cause they’re all booked up
Can’t take a roller coaster
'Cause I’m not tall enough

Supposed to see my baby February 14
But the jokes in my desk calendar were too
Funny
So I don’t know the date
And I need see my baby today

Telephone operator gimme a ring
I can’t seem to figure how to work this thing
And I’m missing my baby
Missing my baby
Missing my baby tonight
Tried to reach my baby
Through the USPS
Drew a picture of her on the front
'Cause I don’t her address

Tried to send a fax but her
Machine wasn’t on
Yelled her name out on ham
Radio and she did not respond

Supposed to pick her up February 14
But the date’s been wrong on my rolex since I bought the thing
So I don’t know the day
But I want to see my baby right away

Telephone operator gimme a ring
I can’t seem to figure how to work this thing
And I’m missing my baby
Missing my baby
Missing my baby tonight

Telephone operator gimme a ring
Not sure how to even talk into this thing
And I’m missing my baby
Missing my baby
Missing my baby tonight
Operator please tell me the time and the date
And gimme the phone number to my baby’s place

I can’t ride sea biscuit
'Cause I heard that he’s dead
Not gonna ride a donkey
Unless it was ethically bred

Tried to hitchhike but I got
Stumpy thumbs
Tried to write a song
But it made me sound dumb

Telephone operator gimme a ring
Can’t find any buttons or a dial on this thing
And I’m missing my babt
Missing my baby
Missing my baby tonight
