Busy Line Composer(s): Semos; Frank Stanton; Francis Hayward Performer(s): Rose Murphy and various other artists
I put a nickel in the telephone, dialled my babys number Got a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line Each time I tried I got a busy tone Not my babys number Just a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line
Called his uncle in Jamaica Left a message with the baker Even checked the number in the telephone book Got so awfully, awfully worried To my babys house I hurried When I looked inside, the phone was off the hook
And as I walked up to my baby - then I got my babys number He was busy in the parlour doing fine Busy kissing someone else While I was keeping busy Getting a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line
....busy line
Just brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line
Just biz-biz-biz-biz busy line
Biz-biz busy line I put my nickel in the telephone Dialled my babys number Got a brrr, brrr, brrr, ... line Each time I tried I got a busy tone Not my babys number Just a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line
In Jamaica, left a message with the baker Even checked his number in the telephone book Got so awfully, awfully worried To my babys house I hurried When I looked inside, the phone was off the hook, hook, hook
Walked up to my baby - then I got my babys number He was busy in the parlour doing fine Busy kissing someone else While I was keeping busy Getting a brrr, brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line
