Since I've been gone
You've had your number changed
But my love for you, girl
Still remains the same

Now, I've been loving you and
You've been loving me so long
Baby, what's wrong

So I'm asking
Baby, baby, baby
Please let me have your number
Baby, baby, baby
Please let me have your number

I'm sorry you couldn't call me
When you got home
But other fellows kept on calling
While you were gone

So I had the number changed
But I'm not acting strange
Welcome home
Baby, nothing's wrong

So I'm saying
Baby, baby, baby
You can have my private number
Baby, baby, baby
You can have my private number

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
Baby, baby, baby
You can have it anytime you want it
You can have my private number
Private Number (unreleased cover)
Written byBooker T. Jones and William Bell
Performed byOtis Westinghouse & The Lifts (1980-08-14)
Elvis Costello & The Attractions with Glenn Tilbrook (1981-02-09)
