Had our number changed today although I hated to

But each time the phone would ring they wanna speak to you

And it hurt to tell them you weren't here with me

Maybe now oh telephone will let me be

It's not in the book so now you'd better write it down

Just in case your love for me should ever come around

You might want to call and break the news to me just call Lonesome 7-7203

[ steel ]

I keep the telephone beside me all the time

Hoping you might wanna call and say you've changed your mind

If you do then darling you know where I'll be I'm at Lonesome 7-7203
