“Landline” lyrics

Call me on the landline, baby

Call me on the landline, baby

Call me on the landline, baby

Call me on the landline, baby

Call me on the landline, baby

Call me on the landline, baby

Call me on the landline, baby

Call me on the landline, baby

Call me on the landline, baby

Remember when we had to call the house first
Talking to your daddy, man, that was the worst
"Is she there? Nah, she busy," click
Had to call again, had to be real quick
Now everybody typing with the little dots
Everybody ghosting, everybody not
Give me something real, give me something loud
Give me a voice cutting through the crowd

I don't wanna text you
I don't wanna DM
I just want your voice
Late night again

Call me on the landline, baby
Like it's 2005
Twist the cord and talk all night
Call me on the landline, baby

Call me on the landline, baby

Ring, ring (ring, ring)
Pick up, pick up
Ring, ring

Ring, ring (ring, ring)
Pick up, pick up
Ring, ring

Ring, ring (ring, ring)
Pick up, pick up
Ring, ring

Flip phone in the pocket and a two-way pager
Burning CDs, write your name in the paper
Throwback on the jersey and the frosted tips
You sent me a message, took a week to get
We don't do that, nah, we don't wait
We just want it instant, we just want it straight
But sometimes, baby, slow it down
Hear you breathing, hear the sound

I don't wanna text you
I don't wanna DM
I just want your voice
Late night again

Call me on the landline, baby
Like it's 2005
Twist the cord and talk all night
Call me on the landline, baby
Call me on the landline, baby

Who got a landline (we do)
Who got a flip phone (we do)
Who remember dial-up (we do)
Who still waiting on a call (we do)
Who got a landline
Pick up

Who got a landline (we do)
Who got a landline
Pick up

Call me on the landline, baby
Like it's 2005
Twist the cord and talk all night
Call me on the landline, baby
Call me on the landline, baby

Ring, ring (ring, ring)
Pick up, pick up
Ring, ring
