[Chorus]
Please operator could you trace this call
Find out where I'm drinking
Which dirty beer hall
And send a cab driver to call for me here
No need to describe me
'Cause I ain't all here

She told me to get lost
And that's what I did
But I've done it so well
I don't know where I hid
And she swore that she never will see me again
Hell I'll never find me
In the shape that I'm in

[Chorus]

Now I had to ask myself
If I were me
And I was out drinking
Well where would I be
Then I thumb nailed the label
And there I appeared
Hiding out in a bottle
Behind a three-day old beard

[Chorus]

Well I may be lonely
But I'm never alone
Cause I've been beside myself
Since she's been gone

Oh, please operator could you trace this call
Find out where I'm drinking
Which dirty beer hall
And send a cab driver to call for me here
And if he can find me
I'll buy him a beer

Please operator could you trace this call
Find out where I'm drinking
Which filthy beer hall
And send a cab driver to call for me here
I'll be beside myself
Pouring down beer

Cajun Girl
Little Feat
Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
