Lady:

Hallo

Kidnapper:

Lady we've just kidnapped your husband

Have $800,000 ready by tomorrow night

and lady no police

or you'll never see your husband alive again

Lady:

Hallo

I remember standing there so petrified

my hand frozen to the phone

as a stranger's words that caught in my ears

and chilled me to the bone

Some dark tragedy had come right home to me

they'd kidnapped my man and his life was in their hands

CHORUS:

He was a hostage, a hostage

His life was at the mercy of their hands

He was a hostage, a hostage

His life depending on their gold demands

Lady:

Hallo

Kidnapper:

Lady, here's your husband through

to warn not to play any games

Husband:

Hi honey listen I'm okay

Just make sure you do whatever they tell you

and whatever you do don't go to the police!

Well I couldn't raise that kinda money fast

so I was left no other choice

so I called the police and they came in fast

saying
