When I dialed 6-1-1, Repair Service
She said "Hello, may I help you please?"
I told her something must be wrong with my phone
'Cause my baby wouldn't hang up on me

Mr. Telephone Man
There's something wrong with my line
When I dial my baby's number
I get a click every time
Mr. Telephone Man
There's something wrong with my line
When I dial my baby's number
I get a click every time

She let the phone ring 20 times before she answered
Let me tell you what happened then
A minute later, I got the operator
Saying "Please hang up and place your call again," baby

Mr. Telephone Man
There's something wrong with my line
When I dial my baby's number
I get a click every time
Mr. Telephone Man
Something's wrong with my line
I try to dial her number
But, I get a click every time

Some strange man is on the telephone (The telephone)
He keeps telling me my baby, ain't home (That she's not home)
She ain't got no party line (Oh, oh)
Situation blowing my mind (Oh, oh)
Oh, I just can't take this anymore

Please operator
See what you can do
I dialed the right number
But I still couldn't get through
Could you just check the line
Just one more time if you can
I'm pretty sure her phone
Wouldn't be answered by no man
