Today’s song is Hello, This Is Joanie by Paul Evans

My phone rang and my heart sang my baby’s called at last
Instead it was a friend who said that Joanie’s car had crashed
I never should have let her drive alone angry from my place
I’d never hold her again and kiss that funny face
But still there was a way to hear her voice
The phone rang once, the phone rang twice
And then I heard her say

Hello, this is Joanie
I’m sorry that I’m not home
If you leave me your name and number
I promise soon as I get in I’ll phone

Following hard on the heels of yesterday’s story song, here’s another. One of those cheesy classics, but one that I don’t remember hearing on the radio since the late 70s when it was released.
