Long Distance Operator lyrics

by Bob Dylan

Long-distance operator,
Place this call, it`s not for fun.
Long-distance operator,
Please, place this call, you know it`s not for fun.
I gotta get a message to my baby,
You know, she`s not just anyone.

There are thousands in the phone booth,
Thousands at the gate.
There are thousands in the phone booth,
Thousands at the gate.
Ev`rybody wants to make a long-distance call
But you know they`re just gonna have to wait.

If a call comes from Louisiana,
Please, let it ride.
If a call comes from Louisiana,
Please, let it ride.
This phone booth`s on fire,
It`s getting hot inside.

Ev`rybody wants to be my friend,
But nobody wants to get higher.
Ev`rybody wants to be my friend,
But nobody wants to get higher.
Long-distance operator,
I believe I`m stranglin` on this telephone wire
