The Carter Family
Hello Central, Give Me Heaven
[Chorus]
Hello central give me heaven
For I know my mother's there
And you'll find her with the angels
Over on the golden stair

[Verse 1]
She'll be glad it's me a speaking
Won't you call her for me please
For I surely want to tell her
That we're sad without her here

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
Poppa dear is said and lonely
Sobbed the tearful little child
Since momma's gone to heaven
Poppa dear you do not smile
I will speak to her and tell her
That we want her to come home
You just listen while I call her
Call her through the telephone

[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
I will answer just to please her
Yes dear hearts I'll soon come home
Kiss me momma it's your darling
Kiss me through the telephone

[Chorus]
