I rented my apartment |
|
On a Monday at one |
|
A-singin' do lolly, lolly |
|
Shicky bum, shicky bum |
|
Started movin' in it |
|
On a Tuesday at two |
|
A-singin' do lolly, lolly |
|
Shicky do, shicky do |
|
Wednesday at three |
|
I called the phone company, singin' |
|
Hey baby, put a phone in for me |
|
Thursday at four |
|
He came a-knockin' at my door, singin' |
|
Hey, baby, I'm your telephone man |
|
You just show me where you want it |
|
And I'll put it where I can |
|
I can put it in the bedroom |
|
I can put it in the hall |
|
I can put it in the bathroom |
|
I can hang it on the wall |
|
You can have it with the buzz |
|
you can have it with the ring |
|
And if you really want it |
|
You can have a ding-a-ling |
|
Because-a hey baby |
|
I'm your telephone man |
|
Can you believe that? |
|
And then he says |
|
Now when other fellas call ya |
|
Tell 'em how it all began |
|
Well, can you imagine? |
|
My heart began a-thumpin' |
|
And my mind began to fly |
|
And I knew I wasn't dealin' |
|
With no ordinary guy |
|
So while he was a-talking |
|
I was thinkin' up my plan |
|
Then my fingers did the walkin' |
|
On the telephone man |
|
Singin hey lolly, lolly |
|
Hey lolly, lolly |
|
Hey lolly, lolly |
|
Get it any way you can |
|
Right? Ha, ha, ha, so |
|
I got it in the bedroom |
|
And I got it in the hall |
|
And I got it in the bathroom |
|
And he hung it on the wall |
|
I got it with a buzz |
|
And I got it with a ring |
|
And when he told me |
|
What my number was |
|
I got a ding-a-ling |
|
A-singin hey lolly, lolly |
|
Hey lolly, lolly |
|
Hey lolly, lolly |
|
Just-a doin' my thing |
|
Ha, ha...I've never done anything |
|
Like this before |
