Hello central, give me no man's land

When the gray shadows creep
And the world is asleep,
In the still of the night
Baby climbs 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 pray'rs were said.
Don't ring when you get the number
Or you'll disturb mamma's slumber,
I'm afraid to stand here 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'
