Private Number

You have a private number
The operator won't give it out
All my friends tell me they don't know your whereabouts
Each time I dial your number my head starts spinning
But the operator tells me hang up and try it again

I said you have a private number
And the operator won't give it out
I'm sick and tired of your friends telling me
They don't know your whereabouts
He has what it takes to give me peace of mind
I need him for myself got to have him all the time
I'm sick of that private number
I'm sick of that private number

My baby has a private telephone
And has moved to a brand new home
If I knew where he's gone
I would surely knock on his door
Because each time I dial his number
The operator tells me to hang up and dial again
That's when my heart begins to spin

Baby you better call me and give me that other number
No, you better not let me catch you walking down the street you hear
I got to have a good piece of mind

He has what it takes
And just to give me a piece of mind
I need him for myself
And I got to have him all the time

My baby has a private phone
And he done moved to a brand new home
If I know where he had gone I'd go knock on that door fo' sho'

I said you have a private number
each time I dial my head begins to spin
But every time the operator tells me
" young lady you've got to hang up and try it again"
I got to have piece of mind
Got to have my baby all the time
And I'm sick of that private number
