Central, Hello Hello
"Give me six double, O,"
"Is that you,"
"Yes, dear, that's me."
I cannot sleep a wink,
I cannot eat or drink
What will your answer be?
She said: "Don't go insane,
call me at noon again
And I might tell you dear Paul.
He cried: "You've said that before
But I'll try just once more
Twelve o'clock sharp came the call
"Hello" 's that you?"
"mm hm!!"

What's the good word, Rosy,
Rosy tell me what's your answer, dear?
I've been scheming;
I've been dreaming
Oh, I feel so queer, my dearie,
I am love sick,
Love sick for you darling
my heart aches for you.
I cannot linger longer
for my love is growing stronger;
What's the good word tell me, do?

What's the good word, Rosy,
Rosy tell me what's your answer, dear?
I've been scheming;
I've been dreaming
Oh, I feel so queer, my dearie,
I am love sick,
Love sick for you darling
my heart aches for you.
I cannot linger longer
for my love is growing stronger;
What's the good word tell me, do?

Ev'ry day he would 'phone
in the same way he'd moan.
Her answer always the same.
Called at her home one night,
wooed her with all his might
When her real sweetheart came
He cried: and wiped a tear
"Goodbye, for ever, dear,
I'm going far, far away."
He walked for ten miles in pain
but he came back again;
grabbed the 'phone and loud did say.
"Hello" 's that you?"
"mm hm!!"

What's the good word, Rosy,
Rosy tell me what's your answer, dear?
I've been scheming;
I've been dreaming
Oh, I feel so queer, my dearie,
I am love sick,
Love sick for you darling
my heart aches for you.
I cannot linger longer
for my love is growing stronger;
What's the good word tell me, do?

What's the good word, Rosy,
Rosy tell me what's your answer, dear?
I've been scheming;
I've been dreaming
Oh, I feel so queer, my dearie,
I am love sick,
Love sick for you darling
my heart aches for you.
I cannot linger longer
for my love is growing stronger;
What's the good word tell me, do?
