Busy Line

Busy Line - Rose Murphy

I put a nickel in the telephone

Dialled my babys number

Got a brrr brrr brrr brrr busy line

Each time I tried I got a busy tone

Not my babys number

Just a brrr brrr brrr brrr busy line

Called his uncle in Jamaica

Left a message with the baker

Even checked the number in the telephone book

Got so awfully awfully worried

To my babys house I hurried

When I looked inside the phone was off the hook

And as I walked up to my baby then

I got my babys number

He was busy in the parlour doing fine

Busy kissing someone else

While I was keeping busy

Getting a brrr brrr brrr brrr busy line

Busy line

Just brrr brrr brrr brrr busy line

Just biz biz biz biz busy line

Biz biz busy line

I put my nickel in the telephone

Dialled my babys number

Got a brrr brrr brrr line

Each time I tried I got a busy tone

Not my babys number

Just a brrr brrr brrr brrr busy line

In Jamaica left a message with the baker

Even checked his number in the telephone book

Got so awfully awfully worried

To my babys house I hurried

When I looked inside

The phone was off the hook hook hook

I walked up to my baby then

I got my babys number

He was busy in the parlour doing fine

Busy kissing someone else

While I was keeping busy

Getting a brrr brrr brrr brrr busy line
