Lyrics
- Hello Central, Hello Central, Give me 603
Please don’t keep me waiting here
Want to talk with Georgie dear,
Hello Georgie hello Georgie
Goodness gracious me,
Well now at last I’ve got you dear
This is your Marie
I’ve been trying hard all day
To get you on the phone to say, I’m
Chorus
All alone, All alone, nobody here but me,
Parlor’s nice and cozy, everything is rosy
We’ll have lots of hurry up and get here honey,
Take a car, it’s not far, my time is all my own,
Hurry up there’s something missing,
We’ll have lots of kissing
Pa and ma have left me all alone
2. Hello Georgie, Hello Georgie,
Can’t come out tonight,
I don’t want to see a show
Dinner? Goodness gracious no,
Do not coax me it provokes me
Nothing you can say
Will get me to come out tonight
Home I’m going to stay
Want you to come right up here
And show me how you love me dear, I’m
