Pennsylvania 6 - 5000 - Tex Beneke, The Modernaires

Numbers I’ve got by the dozen

Everyone’s uncle and cousin

But I can’t live without buzzin'

Pennsylvania Six, Five Thousand

I’ve got a sweety I know there

Someone who sets me aglow there

Gives me the sweetest «hello there»

Pennsylvania Six, Five Thousand

We don’t say «how are you»

And very seldom ask «what's new?»

Instead we start and end each call with

«Baby confidentially I love you»

Maybe it sounds a bit funny

When I’m away from my honey

Here’s what I do with my money
