        F             Bbm        F         Dm7    Gm7    C7 
I put a nickel in the telephone, dialed my baby's number 
      F           Gm7  C7      F    Db7  C7 
Got a brrr, brrr, brrr,   busy line 
            F             Bbm        F      Dm7    Gm7   C7 
Each time I tried I got a busy tone, not my baby's number 
       F           Gm7   C7  F        Cm7  F 
Just a brrr, brrr, brrr,     busy line

To my baby's house I hurried 
       Dm7                G7                C7   Db7  C7 
When I looked inside, the phone was off the hook 



         F               Bbm 
And as I walked up to my baby then 
 F       Dm7    G7      C7 
I got my baby's number 
       F               Bb       A    F7 
He was busy in the parlor doing fine 
     Bb      D7      Gm7    C7 
Busy kissing someone else 
      F             Gm7 
While I was keeping busy

Getting a brrr, brrr, brrr, busy line
