Call of the Wild Lyrics

operator i'm looking for a girl
you've got to help me get through
i don't know much about her
so i'm relying on you
she got rhythm but no sense of timing
she likes living but she's got no
address
operator you've got to get me out of
this mess
let me tell you about her

she ain't got a face
she ain't got a name
she ain't got a leg to stand upon
she's out of touch
but not out of mind
and i've got to see again that gypsy
child
operator this is the call of the wild

she's a hitch hiker never gets a ride
but you can bet she's on time
she's always around but so hard to
find
she causes trouble she never takes
offence
dirty mind a heart of gold
operator don't you put me on hold

The speaker's lost a girl a long time ago, and she is way out of touch, but the speaker's still determined to find the girl once again, by calling her into the "wild," that is, the vast expanse of area the girl could be in, hence the title, "Call of the Wild."

Hi there, don´t think he´s talking bout a specific girl. "She ain´t got a face." I guess he´s talking about love as a feeling: "Always around but hard to find", "Dirty mind heart of gold", "rhythm, but no sense of time".

I feel like some man met some girl somewhere...and was interested. but never got her number of info to contact her... so a call of the wild is hoping someone may know who she is.. i don't know much about her.. but she came into my life one day and poof is gone ...where is she?
