[Verse 1]
I put a nickel in the telephone, dialed my baby's number
Got a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line
Each time I tried I got a busy tone, not my baby's number
Just a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line
Called his uncle in Jamaica
Left a message with the baker
Even checked the number in the telephone book
Got so awfully, awfully worried
To my baby's house I hurried
When I looked inside, the phone was off the hook
[Verse 2]
And as I walked up to my baby - then
I got my baby's number
He was busy in the parlor doing fine
Busy kissing someone else
While I was keeping busy
Getting a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line
