Mr Telephone Man Song Lyrics by New Edition
Mr. Telephone Man
There’s somethin’ wrong with my line
When I dial my baby’s number
I get a click every time
Mr. Telephone Man
There’s somethin’ wrong with my line
When I dial my baby’s number
I get a click every time
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 somethin’ wrong with my line
When I dial my baby’s number
I get a click every time
Mr. Telephone Man
There’s somethin’ 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 (Ah)
A minute later, I got the operator
Saying “Please hang up and place your call again,” baby
Mr. Telephone Man
There’s somethin’ wrong with my line
When I dial my baby’s number
I get a click every time
Mr. Telephone Man (Telephone Man)
Something’s wrong with my line (Wrong with my line)
I try to dial her number (Dial my baby’s 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 (Ooh, ooh)
Situation blowing my mind (Ooh, ooh)
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
Mr. Telephone Man
There’s somethin’ wrong with my line
When I dial my baby’s number
I get a click every time
Mr. Telephone Man (Telephone Man)
Something’s wrong with my line (Wrong with my line)
I try to dial her number (Dial my baby’s number)
But, I get a click every time
Must be a bad connection
I give her my love and affection (She’s had it all)
I just can’t take this no more
This situation blowin’ my mind (Blowin’ my mind)
Can’t get my baby on the line (On the line)
I tried dialing information (Mr. Telephone Man)
I can’t get no cooperation (Mr. Telephone Man)
The system on the phone, tellin’ me my baby ain’t at home
Ah baby, I just can’t take it anymore
Help me out, please Mr. Telephone Man
Help me out, please Mr. Telephone Man
