Hello central, give me no man's land
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When the gray shadows creep
And the world is asleep,
In the still of the night
Baby climbs down a flight;
First she looks all around
Without making a sound;
Then baby toddles up to the telephone
And whispers in a baby tone:
Hello central, give me no man's Land,
My daddy's there,
My mamma told me
She tip-toed off to bed after my pray'rs were said.
Don't ring when you get the number
Or you'll disturb mamma's slumber,
I'm afraid to stand here at the phone
'Cause I'm alone,
So won't you hurry;
I want to know why mamma starts to weep
When I say, 'Now I lay me down to sleep';
Hello central, give me no man's land.
Hello central, give me no man's Land,
My daddy's there,
My mamma told me
She tip-toed off to bed after my pray'rs were said.
Don't ring when you get the number
Or you'll disturb mamma's slumber,
I'm afraid to stand here at the phone
'Cause I'm alone,
So won't you hurry;
I want to know why mamma starts to weep
When I say, 'Now I lay me down to sleep';
Hello central, give me no man's land.
