Standard (EADGBE)

Every morning just as soon as it's light

Get out of bed and I'm feeling alright

 Make me some coffee and I sit down alone

 The rest of the day I'm on the telephone

Chorus

Hang up, hold on

You got a dime so you come on so strong

 Save your money and let me be

Hang up the phone and quit bothering me

I got a phone in my bedroom and one in the barn

A phone in my car and one in the yard

A phone on my saddle for when I'm out on the range

A phone in my pocket for when I'm down at the grange

Chorus

Now with devaluation all over the land

The whole wide world has got more money in their hand

They'll be calling me up from Peking and Nome

I'm going to rip out my telephone
