morning this morning the curtains are shut
  i'll ring you in the morning but the phone's been cut
  can you hear me i've been calling all day
  can you hear me
  the radio reporter said the line's all dead
  he told me that i oughta write a letter instead
  can you hear i've been calling all day
  can you hear me
    chorus
  i'd wish they'd fix the wires cause my baby won't know
  that i'm leaving in the morning and i'm ready to go
  can you hear me
  can you hear me at all
  gotta get the operator make a telephone call
    and if i write a letter it won't get there on time
  i'll only reach you baby on the telephone line
  can you hear me
  i've been calling all day
  can you hear me
  my car's already and my bags are all packed
  i'm late already and i won't be back
  can you hear me
  i've been calling all day
  can you hear me
    repeat chorus
    ooo can you hear me
