Lyrics
Operator, operator,
Please hook me up
To my lover
at the end of the line
Operator, operator,
Please hook me up
To my lover
gotta know that he's mine
Operator, operator,
Please hook me up
To my lover
at the end of the line
Operator, operator,
Please hook me up
To my lover
gotta know that he's mine
When darkness falls
and I'm all alone
I need you to call me
on the telephone
When night time comes
and I don't have a choice
Once again I need
to hear your sweet little voice
I heard a song
on the radio
I'll call you up
to sing it for you
So if you turn
on the radio
You will feel the magic too
Operator, operator,
Please hook me up
To my lover
at the end of the line
Operator, operator,
Please hook me up
To my lover
gotta know that he's mine
Please hook me up to my lover
Please hook me up to my lover
