It's called Hello Central
~~~
Papa
I'm so sad and lonely
sobbed a tearful little child
Since mama's gone to Heaven
Papa darling
you've not smiled
I will speak to her
and tell her
that we want her to come home
Just you listen
and I'll call her
on the telephone
~
Hello central ...
Give me heaven
for my mama's there
You will find her with the Angels
on the golden stair
She'll be glad it's me who's speaking
Oh, call her
won't you please
For I surely want to tell her
we're so lonely here
~
When the girl received this message
coming o'er the telephone
How her heart
thrilled in that moment
and all the wires
seemed to moan
I will answer just to please her
Yes dear heart
I will come home
Mama
Come and kiss your darling
through the telephone
~~~

Youo guys are making me cry

So long lives this, and this give life to thee." W.S.
