Hello, this is Joannie, I`m sorry but I`m not home
But if you leave me your name and number
I promise, soon as I get in I`ll phone
Joannie, came over to my house last night
I drank a little too much red and we got into a fight
She said I`m leavin` and I let her go alone
I felt so damn bad this morning, I reached right for the phone
And called her right away, to beg her to forgive
The phone rang once, the phone rang twice
And then I heard her say-hey
Hello, this is Joannie, I`m sorry but I`m not home
But if you leave me your name and number
I promise, soon as I get in I`ll phone
Joannie, I`m sorry and I`m feelin` oh so small
That was the message that I left and I waited for her call
I waited with a sinkin` feeling in my heart
Not knowin` if she`d forgive me was tearin` me apart
I couldn`t go on this way, I had to call again
The phone rang once, the phone rang twice
And then I heard her say-hey
Hello, this is Joannie, I`m sorry but I`m not home
But if you leave me your name and number
I promise, soon as I get in I`ll phone
My phone rang and my heart sang, my baby`s called at last
Instead it was a friend who said that Joannie`s car had crashed
I never should`ve let her drive home angry from my place
I`d never hold her again and kiss that funny face
But still there was a way to hear her voice again
The phone rang once, the phone rang twice
And then I heard her say-hey
Hello, this is Joannie, I`m sorry but I`m not home
(I`m so sorry Joannie)
But if you leave me your name and number
I promise, soon as I get in I`ll phone
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Hello, this is Joannie, I`m sorry but I`m not home
But if you leave me your name and number
I promise, soon as I get in I`ll phone
