As Soon as I Hang Up the Phone Songtext
von Loretta Lynn & Conway Twitty

Hello darlin′, I knew it was you
(Hello Loretta)
(Loretta there's something I just got to tell you)

Oh, please tell me what to do
(I don′t really know how to say this but I want to tell you that I)
You gave me the will to go on as soon as I picked up the phone
(No no, you don't understand Loretta, I'm trying to tell you that I)

The talk is around that we′re through
(Yeah, I know I′ve heard it too)
Oh darling, tell me what to do
(But that's just it that′s what I'm trying to tell you, I wanna tell you that)


I knew, you′d tell me they were wrong as soon as I picked up the phone
(Oh, but it's true they′re not wrong)
Oh no, oh no, I can't believe that it's true
(I′m sorry Loretta)
(I′m sorry Loretta, I'm really, really sorry)

Oh no, oh no, I can′t believe that we're through
(I know you know that I never thought it would come to this)
You tell me it′s over and done
(I really thought that I loved you and you know that)

You say that you've had all your fun
(You′ve just got to believe me that I never meant to hurt you)
But I can't believe, you've been gone
(This is the hardest thing that I′ve ever had to do and it hurts me too)

As soon as I hang up the phone
(Yeah, I′ll be gone)
As soon as I hang up the phone
(Goodbye Loretta)
