Hello Central, Give Me No Man's Land

Hello Central, Give Me No Man's Land - Al Jolson/The Peerless Quartet

When the gray shadows creep

And the world is asleep

In the still of the night

Baby climbs down a flight

First she looks all around

Without making a sound

Then baby toddles up to the telephone

And whispers in a baby tone

Hello central give me no man's Land

My daddy's there

My mamma told me

She tip toed off to bed after

My pray'rs were said

Don't ring when you get the number

Or you'll disturb mamma's slumber

I'm afraid to stand here at the phone

'Cause I'm alone

So won't you hurry

I want to know why mamma starts to weep

When I say 'Now I lay me down to sleep'
