ARTIST: The Grateful Dead TITLE: Operator Lyrics and Chords Operator, can you help me Help me if you please Give me the right area code And the number that I need My rider left upon the midnight flyer Singin' like a summer breeze / G - / / C - / G - / A D / EmD G / I think she's somewhere down south Down about Baton Rouge But I just-a can't remember no number A number I can use Direct'ry don't have it, central done forgot it Got to find a number to use Try'n' to check out her number Try'n' to run down her line Operator said that's priv'leged information And it ain't no business of mine It's floodin' down in Texas, poles are out in Utah Got to find a private line She could be hangin' 'round a steel mill Workin' in a house of blue lights Ridin' a getaway bus out of Portland Talkin' to the night I don't know where she's goin', I don't care where she's been Long as she's been doin' it right Long as she's been doin' it right
