Call Me Lyrics

Call on me, oh call up, baby
Call on me, oh call
Call on me, oh call up, darling
I know who you are
Come up off your calling chart
I know where you're coming from

Call Me!
(Call me!)
On the line
Call me, call me any anytime
Call me!
(Call me!)
I'll arrive
You can call me any day or night
Call me

Cover me with kisses, baby
Cover me with love
Roll me in designer sheets
I'll never get enough
Emotions come, I don't know why
Cover of love's alibi

Call me!
(Call me!)
On the line
Call me, call me any anytime
Call me!
(Call me!)
I'll arrive
When you're ready we can share the wine
Call me

Ooh, he speaks the languages of love
Ooh, amore, chiamami, chiamami
Ooh, appelle moi, mon cheri, appelle moi
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere, anyway
Anytime, anyplace, anywhere, any day

Call me!
(Call me!)
My love
Call me, call me any anytime
Call me
(Call me!)
For a ride
Call me
Call me for some overtime

Call me!
(Call me!)
My love
Call me
Call me in a sweet design
Call me!
(Call me!)
Call me for your lover's lover's alibi

Call me!
(Call me!)
For a ride
Call me, call me any anytime
Call me
(Call me!)
Uh, call me
Uh, uh, uh, call me!
(Call me!)
My love
Call me, call me any anytime

Call Me

This song is about a prostitute. It was featured in the film American Gigolo in a scene where the lead character is "working."

European disco producer Giorgio Moroder wrote this with Blondie lead singer Debbie Harry, who thus became the first woman in British chart history to write three #1 hits. However she hadn't been Moroder's first choice. The Italian disco king had originally wanted Stevie Nicks to provide vocals on the track but the Fleetwood Mac vocalist declined the offer.

This was the most successful of all Blondie singles in their native USA. It was the best-selling single of 1980.

In 2002, The Box Tops recorded this for the compilation album When Pigs Fly: Songs You Never Thought You'd Hear . Cevin Soling, who was executive producer on the album, explains: "I got the Box Tops back together again, and that was a blast. That was so much fun working with the Box Tops. Especially with Alex Chilton there singing. I didn't produce that. I was in the studio, but the producer on that one was a buy named Benji King, who was the keyboard player for the band Scandal. That studio experience was pretty funny, because he's so full of energy. He's always excited and always really into things. The Box Tops are each one degree more laid back to the next. Coming from the South, they're all kind of very chill. Until you get to Alex Chilton, who's practically catatonic. And so you have that contrast." (Check out our interview with Cevin Soling.)

In 2009, Franz Ferdinand covered this song for the War Child Presents Heroes charity album.

This song was covered by the heavy metal band In This Moment on their 2008 album, The Dream. (thanks, Charlie - Las Vegas, NV)

Giorgio Moroder told Billboard magazine that his difficult experience of recording this song with Blondie taught him not to work with rock bands. "There were always fights," he recalled. "I was supposed to do an album with them after that. We went to the studio, and the guitarist was fighting with the keyboard player. I called their manager and quit."

Call Me Lyrics

This ain't the hottie
That I thought I knew
This ain't the party
That I thought we'd do

You got your limit, baby
I got mine
6-11, 3-3-6-9
You got to tell me baby
We ain't the lovers
That will tare me down
We ain't the fortune
All over town
You got your limit, baby, I got mine
6-11, 3-3-6-9
You got to Call Me baby
I need you to pick up that telephone
And dial those numbers hottie

I need you to call me
I need to hear your sweet voice
Let me, let me, let me, let me hear you again
I need, I need, I need, I need, I need you baby
I need, I need, I need, I need, I need you baby
Got to pick up, got to pick up that telephone
Please, please oh baby

You got your limit, baby
I got mine
6-11, 3-3-6-9
Please oh please baby
Pick up that telephone
I need you to pick it up baby
I need you to pick it up now baby

Call Me Song Chart

St. Paul and The Broken Bones is a seven-piece soul band formed in Birmingham, Alabama in 2012. This is their debut single.

Dave Letterman booked St. Paul and the Broken Bones to perform the tune on the January 12, 2015 episode of The Late Show. He enthused about the band before they even played a note. "I'll tell you something, the first time I heard this song," said the talk show host, "I was screaming, 'til I cried. That's what I want: can you do that for me tonight? It won't be your fault, but if I don't get that, I'm gonna stop the show, and do it over!"

Letterman asked frontman Paul Janeway why he put a phone number in the lyrics of the song; Janeway replied that it was in tribute to Wilson Pickett's soul classic "634-5789," "But unfortunately, in Birmingham it leads to some sort of hotline."
