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 the busy 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
