Sittin' in my bedroom late last night

Got into bed and turned out the light

Decided to call my baby on the telephone

All I got was an engaged tone

It's off the hook

It's off the hook

It's off the hook

It's off the hook

It's off the hook



Talkin' so long she upset my mind

Why is she talkin' such a long time?

Maybe she's sleeping, maybe she's ill

Phone's disconnected, unpaid bill

It's off the hook

It's off the hook

It's off the hook

It's off the hook

It's off the hook



Don't wanna see her, afraid of what I'd find

Tired of letting her upset me all the time

Back into bed started reading my books

Take my phone right off of the hook

It's off the hook

It's off the hook

It's off the hook

It's off the hook

It's off the hook



It's off the hook
