1, 2, 3, 4
I'm in the phone booth
It's the one across the hall
If you don't answer
I'll just ring it off the wall
I know he's there
But I just had to call

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

I heard your mother
Now she's going out the door
Did she go to work
Or just go to the store?
All those things she said
I told you to ignore

Oh, why can't we talk again?
Oh, why can't we talk again?
Oh, why can't we talk again?

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

It's good to hear your voice
You know it's been so long
If I don't get your calls
Then everything goes wrong
I want to tell you something
You've known all along
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

[Guitar Solo]

Oh, I can't control myself
Oh, I can't control myself
Oh, I can't control myself

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

Run and run to me
Oh, hang up and run to me
Oh, hang up and run to me
I said oh, hang up and run to me
Oh, hang up and run to me
