Private Number Lyrics by William Bell

Duets

0

[Verse 1: William Bell]
Since I've been gone
You've had your number changed
But my love for you, girl
Still remains the same

[Bridge: William Bell]
Now I've been loving you
And you've been loving me
So long, baby, what's wrong

[Chorus: William Bell]
So I'm asking baby, baby, baby
Please let me have your number, yeah
Baby, baby, baby
Please let me have your number

[Verse 2: Judy Clay]
I'm sorry you couldn't call me
When you got home
But other fellows kept on calling
While you were gone

[Bridge: Judy Clay]
So I had the number changed
But I'm not acting strange
Welcome home, nothing's wrong

[Chorus: William Bell and Judy Clay]
So I'm saying, baby, baby, baby
You can have my private number
Baby, baby, baby
You can have my private number
Oh, thank you
Baby, baby, baby
You can have my private number
Thank you, baby
Baby, baby, baby
For giving me your private number
You can have it
Thank you, baby

[Outro: William Bell and Judy Clay]
(Baby, baby, baby)
You can have it
Thank you, baby
Anytime you want it
Thank you, baby
You can have my private number
