| Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's busy Too busy to come to the phone Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's trying To start a new life of her own Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's happy So why don't you leave her alone And the operator says forty cents more For the next three minutes Please, Mrs. Avery, I just gotta talk to her I'll only keep her awhile Please, Mrs. Avery, I just wanna tell her goodbye Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's packing She's gonna be leaving today Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's marrying A fella down Galveston way Sylvia's mother says please don't say nothing To make her start crying and stay And the operator says forty cents more For the next three minutes Please, Mrs. Avery, I just gotta talk to her I'll only keep her awhile Please, Mrs. Avery, I just wanna tell her goodbye Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's hurrying She's catching the nine o'clock train Sylvia's mother says take your umbrella 'Cause Sylvie, it's starting to rain And Sylvia's mother says thank you for calling And, sir, won't you call back again And the operator says forty cents more For the next three minutes Please, Mrs. Avery, I just gotta talk to her I'll only keep her a while Please, Mrs. Avery, I just wanna tell her goodbye Tell her goodbye Please, tell her goodbye | |
