Operator, can you help me, help me if you please.
Give me the right area code and the number that I need.
My rider left upon the Midnight Flyer.
Singin’ like a summer breeze.

I think she’s somewhere down South, down about Baton Rouge.
But I just can’t remember no number, a number I can use.
Directory don’t have it, central done forgot it.
I’ve gotta find a number to use.

Someone painted April Fool in big black letters on a Dead End sign.
I had my foot on the gas as I left the road and blew out my mind.
Eight miles out.
a Memphis and I got no spare.
Eight miles straight up downtown somewhere.
I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.
I said I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in.

Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)
Kenny Rogers and The First Edition (1968), The First Edition

Feeling more and more like I’ve never felt before.
You have changed my life so completely.
Music fills my soul now, I’ve lost all control now.
I’m not half, I’m whole now with your love.

It’s my happy heart you hear.
Singing loud and singing clear.
And it’s all because you’re near me, my love.
Take my happy heart away.
Let me love you night and day.
In your arms I wanna stay, oh my love.

Happy Heart
Andy Williams (1969), Happy Heart

I’n’I build a cabin.
I’n’I plant the corn.
Didn’t my people before me.
Slave for this country?
Now you look me with that scorn.
Then you eat up all my corn.

We gonna chase those crazy.
Chase them crazy.
Chase those crazy baldheads out of town!

Crazy Baldhead
Bob Marley (1976), Rastaman Vibration
