Hello, Frisco! 1915 'F. Ziegfeld Jr.'s Ziegfeld Follies 1915'

by James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 19 May 2005

Hello Central, Hello Central,
can't you see,
Kindly hurry, kindly hurry,
just for me,
Please do get me San Francisco,
someone's waiting all alone.
Frisco is her name,
she's at the Golden Gate,
Central, it's a shame for her to have to wait,
Please, long distance,
do connect me,
Get her on the telephone.

Hello, Frisco, Hello
Hello, Frisco, Hello
Don't keep me waiting
it's aggravating,
why can't you hurry Central you're so slow,
Hello, now can you hear,
you know I love you, dear,
Your voice is like music to my ear,
When I close my eyes you seem so near,
Frisco I called you up to say "Hello."

Hello, New York, Hello,
Hello, New York, Hello,
Yes dear I hear you,
Wish I were near you
Oh Central won't you please get off the wire,
Hello, dearie, hello,
you know I love you so,
Your voice is like music to my ear,
when I close my eyes you seem so near,
New York I'm glad you called to say "Hello."
