Hello Ma Baby

F I've got a little baby, but she's out of sight, F G C I talk to her across the telephone. C I've never seen my honey but she's mine all right, C C7 F So take my tip and leave this gal alone. F Every single morning you will hear me yell, D7 Gm "Hey Central! Fix me up along the line." A# A#m F D7 He connects me with ma honey, then I rings the bell, G7 C7 And this is what I say to baby mine, F D7 G7 Hello! ma baby, Hello! Ma honey, Hello! ma ragtime gal. C7 F E7 C7 Send me a kiss by wire, baby my heart's on fire! F D7 G7 If you refuse me, Honey, you'll lose me, then you'll be left alone; C C7 F C Oh baby, telephone and tell me I'm your own. F This morning, through the phone, she said her name was Bess. F G C And now I kind of know where I am at; C I'm satisfied because I've got my babe's address, C C7 F Here, pasted in the lining of my hat. F I am mighty scared, 'Cause if the wires get crossed, F7 A# 'Twill separate me from ma baby mine, A# A#m F D7 Then some other guy will win her, And my game is lost, G7 C7 And so each day I shout along the line: F D7 G7 Hello! ma baby, Hello! Ma honey, Hello! ma ragtime gal. C7 F E7 C7 Send me a kiss by wire, baby my heart's on fire! F D7 G7 If you refuse me, Honey, you'll lose me, then you'll be left alone; C C7 F C Oh baby, telephone and tell me I'm your own.
