I Got Your Number
written by Fred Koller, John Hiatt & Al Anderson
Well, I called information and I asked them to look
Cause your name wasn't listed in the telephone book
The operator told me it's a private line
But it starts with a seven and it ends with a nine
I begged and I pleaded, operator tell me more
She said first you've got to tell me what you want it for
And when I told her that I was in love with you
I got your number
And when I told her that I was in love with you
I got your number
So I picked up the receiver and I got the dial tone
I pushed the seven numbers hoping you'd be home
I couldn't wait to tell you what was on my mind
But I heard a busy signal at the end of the Iine
I waited half a minute and I tried it again
If you don't hang up I'm gonna have to bust in
Don't you know baby I'm in love with you
I got your number
Don't you know baby I'm in love with you
I got your number
All my love is on the line
Got the number, gonna make you mine
Gonna find out before I'm done
I'm gonna reach out, reach out, and touch someone
Now there's another busy signal and it's getting late
What we've got here is a failure to communicate
I'd do anything just to get to you
Hang it up baby and Iet me through
It's a real nice invention but at times like this
I can say it so much better with just one more kiss
Don't you know baby I'm in love with you
I got your number
Don't you know baby I'm in love with you
I got your number
