Dr Hook & The Medicine Show - Sylvia's Mother
------------------------------------------

Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's busy
Too busy to come to the phone
Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's tryin'
To start a new life of her own
Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's happy
So why don't you leave her alone?

CHORUS
And the operator says 40 cents more for the next 3 minutes
Ple-ease Mrs. Avery, I just gotta talk to her
I'll only keep her a while
Please Mrs. Avery, I just wanna tell 'er goodbye

Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's packin'
She's gonna be leavin' today
Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's marryin' 
A fella down Galveston way
Sylvia's mother says Please don't say nothin'
To make her start cryin' and stay

CHORUS
And the operator says 40 cents more for the next 3 minutes
Ple-ease Mrs. Avery, I just gotta talk to her
I'll only keep her a while
Please Mrs. Avery, I just wanna tell 'er goodbye

Sylvia's mother says Sylvia's hurryin' 
She's catchin' the nine o'clock train
Sylvia's mother says Take your umbrella
cause Sylvie, it's startin' to rain
And Sylvia's mother says thank you for callin'
And, sir, won't you call back again?

CHORUS
And the operator says 40 cents more for the next 3 minutes
Ple-ease Mrs. Avery, I just gotta talk to her
I'll only keep her a while
Please Mrs. Avery, I just wanna tell 'er goodbye

Tell her goodbye

FADE
Please
Tell her goodbye
