Telephone Man

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
