Operator Lyrics - Manhattan Transfer

Operator give me information 

Information give me long distance 

Long distance give me Heaven 

2 3 oh operator, information 

Give me Jesus on the line 

Operator, information 

I'd like to speak to a friend of mine 

Prayer is my number and faith is the exchange 

Heaven is the street and Jesus is his name 

Now operator, information 

Please give me Jesus on the line 

Operator, information 

Tell me why, why? 

Operator, information 

Don't try to tell me what number to call 

My mother used this number when I was very small 

And every time she dialed it she always got a call 

Oh operator, information 

Please give me Jesus on the line 

Operator, information 

Please help me if you can 

Operator, information 

Please connect me with the Man 

Don't worry about the money, I will pay the charge 

Just give me a private line I'm calling from the heart 

Operator, information 

Please give me Jesus on the line 

Please now give me Jesus on the line 

Please give me Jesus on the line
