Hello Central, Give Me No Man’s Land (1918)
music by Jean Schwartz (1878-1956)
text by Sam Lewis (1885-1959)
and Joe Young (1889-1939)
When the gray shadows creep,
And the world is asleep,
In the still of the night,
Baby creeps down a flight.
First she looks all around,
Without making a sound;
Then baby toddles up to the telephone,
And whispers in a baby tone:
Hello Central, give me No Man’s Land,
My daddy’s there, my mamma told me;
She tip-toed off to bed,
After my prayers were said,
Don’t ring when you get my number,
Or you’ll disturb mamma’s slumber,
I’m afraid to stand her at the phone,
‘Cause I’m alone, so won’t you hurry;
I want to know why mamma starts to weep,
When I say, “now I lay me down to sleep,”
Hello Central, give me No Man’s Land!
Through the curtains of night,
Comes a beautiful light,
And the sunshine that beams,
Finds a baby in dreams.
Mamma looks in to see,
Where her darling can be;
She finds her baby still in her slumber deep,
A whispering while she’s fast asleep:
Hello Central . .
