Lyrics

Please operator
Could you trace this call
Find out where I'm drinkin'
Which dirty beer hall
And send a cab driver to call for me here
No need to describe me
'Cause I ain't all here

She told me to get lost and thats what I did
But I've done it so well, I don't know where I hid
And she swore she'll never see me again
Hell, I'll never find me in the shape that I'm in

Please operator
Could you trace this call
Find out where I'm drinkin'
Which dirty beer hall
And send a cab driver to call for me here
No need to describe me
'Cause I ain't all here

Now I had to ask myself if I were me
If I was out drinkin', just where would I be
Then I thumbnailed a label and there I appeared
Hidin' out in the bottle behind a three-day-old beard

Please operator
Could you trace this call
Find out where I'm drinkin'
Which dirty beer hall
And send a cab driver to call for me here
No need to describe me
'Cause I ain't all here

Now I may be lonely but I'm never alone
'Cause I've been beside myself since she's been gone

Please operator
Could you trace this call
Find out where I'm drinkin'
Which dirty beer hall
And send a cab driver to call for me here
And if he could fine me, ill buy him a beer

Please operator
Could you trace this call
Find out where I'm drinkin'
Which dirty beer hall
And send a cab driver to call for me here
Ill be beside myself to pour him a beer

Please operator
Could you trace this call
Find out where I'm drinkin'
Which dirty beer hall
