Ring, ring, baby

Come on, pick up the phone

I'm so far away

And I don't know when I'm coming home

No, no, no

Baby, don't worry if the tide should turn

Before I do

'Cause I've got a lot of life to see

Baby, don't worry when I take so long to call

I've been away so long

Down in the city

Ring, ring, baby

Come on, pick up the phone

I'm so far away

And I don't know when I'm coming home

No, no, no

Ring, ring, operator, please check this line

I'm a long-distance call

And I think I'm running out of time

Baby, don't worry when the winter turns to spring again

The road that I follow leads to you

Baby, don't worry when the mailman passes by

I've got a message for you

I'm gonna call tonight

I hope I've got your number right, and

Ring, ring, baby

Come on, pick up the phone

I'm so far away

And I don't know when I'm coming home

No, no, no
