Call Me Up (The Phone Is the Cradle)

My friends, they don't talk much 'bout the legend
My friends, they don't talk much anyway
When they do, I know I better listen
'Cause my good friends just naturally know the right things to say

They said, "Call me up, the phone is in the cradle
Get yourself delivered to my door
Well, if you're so inclined and if you got the time
We could talk the night away"

Adam got so lonely in the garden
He said, "It's tough to be the only man alive"
He said, "I'd give a river for just somebody to talk to"
Well, thunder and lightnin' out providin'
You came strolling by

She said, "Call me up, the phone is in the cradle
Get yourself delivered to my door
Well, if you're so inclined and if you got the time
We could talk the night away"

Now Rosy was a queen of the all night cowboy
She said, "Texas boy using kind of shy"
Don't you expect an inboxed invitation
Just knock on the wall, jump down the hall
And drop on by

She said, "Call me up, the phone is in the cradle
Get yourself deliverd to my door
Call me up, the phone is in the cradle
Get yourself deliverd to my door"

Call me up, the phone is in the cradle
Get yourself deliverd to my door
Call me up, the phone is in the cradle
