Hello Central

Lightnin’ Hopkins

[Verse 1]
Hello, central, please get me 2-0-9
Hello, hello, central, will you please give me 2-0-9
Yes, you know, I wanna talk to my baby
Oh, Lord, and she is way down the line

[Verse 2]
Seem like the busses done stopped runnin'
And the trains don’t allow me to ride no more
Seem like the busses done stopped runnin'
Trains don't allow me to ride no more
Ticket agent said my ticket played out
He’ll see that I don't ride for sure

[Instrumental Solo]

[Verse 3]
I turned around from the telephone
Went walking straight back home
Mmmm, turned around from the telephone
I went walking straight back home
I was praying in my heart asking Jesus:
"Oh, Lord, now what wrong have I done?"
