Hello

Standing in my room
Just waiting for the phone to ring
I pick up my guitar and I start to sing
Telephone, telephone
I think I'm waiting for you
Tell me what to think and what the hell I should do
Well, about then, the phone began to cry
The Lord pick me up, told me he's on the other side
Hello, hello, I said, I'm feeling dead up in there
Hello, hello, I said, but there was nobody there at all

Ring-a-ling, the telephone ring
Ring-a-ling, I said the telephone a-sing
Ring-a-ling, I said the telephone ring
Ring-a-ling, I said the telephone sing

Standing in my room

I'm just waiting for the phone to ring
She said she'd call me now, but now
Instead, I'm still waiting

Anxiously anticipating her phone call
She told me she'd call me now
But now, instead, there's no call at all
And I don't want to waste time, that's taking up my time
For I'd still ride around, spend another goddamn night
But now I know the girl who one day could be my wife
And I don't want to miss a girl who's already filled my life

Oh, she make me wait
Girl, she making me wait so
She make me wait
Girl, she making me wait so
She make me wait
Girl, she making me wait so
She make me wait
Girl, she making me wait so
La-la-la-la, la-la-di-la-la-dee
La-la-di-la-di-la, di-la-di-la-dee

Standing in my room
Just waiting for the phone to ring
I pick up my guitar and I start to sing
Telephone, telephone
I think I'm waiting for you
Tell me what to think and what the hell I should do
Well, about then, the phone began to cry
The Lord pick me up, told me he's on the other side
Hello, hello, I said, I'm feeling dead up in there
Hello, hello, I said, but there was nobody there at all

There was no one there at all
