ฟังเพลงSylvia's Mother

Sylvia's Mother (西尔维娅的母亲) - Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show

Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's busy

Too busy to come to the phone

Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's trying

To start a new life of her own

Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's happy

So why don't you leave her alone?

And the operator says forty cents more

For the next three minutes

Please,

Mrs. Avery,

I just gotta talk to her

I'll only keep her awhile

Please,

Mrs. Avery,

I just want to tell her goodbye

Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's packing

She's gonna be leaving today

Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's marrying

A fella down Galveston way

Sylvia's mother says please don't say nothing

To make her start crying and stay

And the operator says forty cents more

For the next three minutes

Please,

Mrs. Avery,

I just gotta talk to her

I'll only keep her awhile

Please,

Mrs. Avery,

I just want to tell her goodbye

Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's hurrying

She's catching the nine o'clock train

Sylvia's mother says take your umbrella

'Cause,

Sylvie,

It's starting to rain

And Sylvia's mother says thank you for calling

And,

Sir,

Won't you call back again?

And the operator says forty cents more

For the next three minutes

Please,

Mrs. Avery,

I just gotta talk to her

I'll only keep her awhile

Please,

Mrs. Avery,

I just want to tell her goodbye

Tell her goodbye

Please,

Tell her goodbye
