Lyrics

[Intro]
Baby, baby
Oh yeah, my, my, my
[Verse 1]
Just seven numbers
Can straighten out my life
But my pride won't let me phone
Just seven numbers
Can get me through to you, girl
Then I'll know you're really at home
[Chorus]
You haven't been fair to me
Playing all that you see
You say you seen some of the act
I don't know that you're coming back
If I only knew where you were
[Verse 2]
Just seven numbers
Can straighten out my life
If my fingers would only turn the dial
Just seven numbers
Can get me through to you, girl
Just your hello would make me smile
[Chorus]
I haven't been fair to myself
I've tried to call someone else
But after she said, "Hi"
I hung up the telephone line
If I only knew where you were (If I only knew)
[Verse 3]
Just seven numbers
Can put me straight through to you
I never knew
Baby
[Verse 4]
Whoa
Just seven numbers
Can straighten out my life
Oh, girl
But my fingers won't turn the dial
[Verse 5]
Just seven numbers
Can put me through to you, baby
Just your hello would make me smile
[Outro]
Just seven numbers
Duck on the prowl and turn the dial
[Outro]
Just seven numbers
Can straighten out my life
