    Hello Central give me heaven, for I know my mother's there, 
                                               A                 A7                    D 
    and you'll find her with the angels over on the golden stair.

    for I surely want to tell her that we're sad without her here.

    Poppa, dear, is said and lonely, sobbed the tearful little child,

    I will speak to her and tell her that we want her to come home, 
                                        A                          A7                    D 
    you just listen while I call her, call her through the telephone.

    I will answer just to please her, yes, dear heart, I'll soon come home, 
                                                 A                          A7                     D
