Lyrics
Johnny Fiama: Last night, I was at home and feeling lonely. I'm on my pad, my feelings were sad. But then, all of a sudden, something happened. My favorite ring, I heard a ding. At once, I knew for well the ring was coming. It was my own sweet telephone. And so, I picked it up and I said something. I cleared my throat. I said "Hello".

It was... "Mama, Mama, pardon me to say... Hope you had a very happy day. It cheered me up and I go long to love this telephone. That is why Johnny Fiama loved his telephone.

Wayne, Wanda , Zelda Rose and Marvin Suggs : It was "Mama, Mama, pardon me to say... Hope you had a very happy day."

Everyone: It cheered me up and I go long to love this telephone. That is why Johnny Fiama loved his telephone.

Johnny Fiama: Sometimes, when things are very, very quiet and I'm alone, I think of the phone. I think of someone I would like to talk to Who might agree to talk to me. I take my favorite finger and I dial the numero, I dial real slow I wait and when they answered, I said something, You may go through, that's "how are you"?

I said... "Mama, Mama, I called up for you. Say I love her Tell a joke or two I called the home, I called the queen or my friend Jack If I called them this time Next time they'll call back.

Wayne, Wanda , Zelda Rose and Marvin Suggs : I said I called up for you. Say I love her Tell a joke or two

Everyone: I called the home, I called the queen or my friend Jack If I called them this time Next time they'll call back.

Wayne, Wanda , Zelda Rose and Marvin Suggs : Ringing, dinging, Singing in my ear

Johnny Fiama: Spreading happiness for them to hear. The horse love hay and cats love milk. Dogs love their bones. Johnny Fiama loves his telephone. Johnny Fiama loves his ringing telephone.
