Bette Midler
Mr. Rockefeller
[Intro]
Hi, operator
May I help you?
Yeah, it's me again
Did you get him on the line yet?
Aw, this is awful, I've been trying to get him all day
Nah, it's okay, I'll wait

[Refrain]
Mr. Rockefeller
How are you?
Mr. Rockefeller
Having fun?
Mr. Rockefeller
I could use a few
If you'd like to send a few
Down my way

[Verse 1]
Mr. Rockefeller
I get my magazines
I've seen you on the TV too, yeah
Mr. Rockefeller, they tell me
They tell me all about it
But they don't tell me
How are you?
[Pre-Chorus]
Sometimes I think I know you
Sometimes I think I don't
Sometimes I think we'll make it
Sometimes I think we won't

[Chorus]
Waiting on the wire
And I'm ragged to the bone
Mr. Rockefeller
Won't you please pick up the phone?
Please pick up the phone

[Verse 2]
The reason I'm calling is to say
I'm not feeling so good
I'm all broken down
My family is nervous
And my thoughts are blue
But I wanna know, I gotta know
I'm askin' everybody, how are you?

[Pre-Chorus]
(Mr. Rockefeller, Mr. Rockefeller) Please, won't you answer me?
(Mr. Rockefeller) Won't you take the time?
(Mr. Rockefeller, Mr. Rockefeller) The next call's got to be collect
(Mr. Rockefeller) 'Cause this is my last dime
[Chorus]
Waiting on the wire
And I'm ragged to the bone
Mr. Rockefeller
Please pick up the phone
Please pick up the phone

[Refrain]
Mr. Rockefeller, how are you?
Mr. Rockefeller, having fun?
Mr. Rockefeller, how are you?
Mr. Rockefeller, having fun?

[Outro]
Mr. Rockefeller, please, Mr. Rockefeller (Mr. Rockefeller)
Mr. Rockefeller, ooh (How are you?)
Mr. Rockefeller, please, Mr. Rockefeller (Mr. Rockefeller, having fun?)
Mr. Rockefeller, ooh
Mr. Rockefeller, please, Mr. Rockefeller (Mr. Rockefeller)
Mr. Rockefeller, ooh (How are you?)
Mr. Rockefeller, please, Mr. Rockefeller (Mr. Rockefeller, having fun?)
Mr. Rockefeller, ooh
Mr. Rockefeller, please, Mr. Rockefeller (Mr. Rockefeller)
Mr. Rockefeller, ooh (How are you?)
Mr. Rockefeller, please, Mr. Rockefeller (Mr. Rockefeller)
Mr. Rockefeller, ooh (How are you?)
Mr. Rockefeller, please, Mr. Rockefeller (Mr. Rockefeller)
Mr. Rockefeller, ooh (How are you?)
