Sylvia´s Mother Lyrics

Sylvia's mother says
Sylvia is busy
Too busy to come to the phone Sylvia's mother says
Sylvia is trying
To start a new life of her own Sylvia's mother says
Sylvia is happy
So why don't you leave her alone And the operator says 40 cents more
For the next three minutes

Please Mrs Avery
I just gotta talk to her
I'll only keep her a while
Please Mrs Avery
I just wanna tell her goodbye

Sylvia's mother says
Sylvia's packing
She's gonna be leaving today Sylvia's mother says
Sylvia is marrying
a fella down Galveston way

Sylvia's mother says
Please don't say nothing
to make her start crying and stay And the operator says 40 cents more
For the next three minutes

Please Mrs Avery
I just gotta talk to her
I'll only keep her a while
Please Mrs Avery
I just wanna tell her goodbye

And Sylvia's mother says
Sylvia's hurrying
She's catching the 9 o'clock train Sylvia's mother says
Take your umbrella
Cause Sylvie it's starting to rain

And Sylvia's mother says
Thank you for calling
And Sir won't you call back again And the operator says 40 cents more
For the next three minutes

Please Mrs Avery
I just gotta talk to her
I'll only keep her a while Please Mrs Avery
I just wanna tell her goodbye Tell her goodbye
Tell her goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
