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�
