Phone Booth Lyrics


Operator, city and state please
Detroit Michigan, I need to make a collect phone call
Hello? What's the number please? 313-652-5501
And your name, Teairra, Pease hold
Damn right now my life ain't filled with nothin' but the drama
(Drama)
Just had the worst fight ever with my mama
(Mama)
She believes that you've got two or three on the come up
Telling me you're loving me, but you're going home to them
Damn, I hope she's wrong 'cuz boy I love the ground you walk on
(Walk on)
She knows that your ties in the streets can be fatal
(Fatal)
She's threatening to disown me if I don't let this go
Lord, can you help me for I blow
I'm so afraid
I'm at the phone booth

My ma just pissed me off
I can't take no more
Can you come and get me from the phone booth?
She's telling me to break up
'Cuz you ain't gon' do nothing but hurt me
Come get me from the phone booth
It's raining, I'm crying
Damn I hope he ain't been lying to me
Come get me from the phone booth
My ma just pissed me off
I can't take no more
Can you come and get me?
Baby, baby are you alright? Why you crying man? Teairra?
If I leave
(If I leave)
Where will I go?
(Will I go)
Will you take me in like you told me before?
(Me before)
Prove that she was just being hysterical
(Hysterical)
Show that what she thinks ain't reality, no
I love her
(I do)
Same time
(I love you)
But you both are making me choose
(See what I go through for you)
Boy you better hope the future that you're promising me
Is as real as the 45 up under your seat, come on
I'm at the phone booth
My ma just pissed me off
(Ay, ya)
I can't take no more
(No more)
Can you come and get me from the phone booth?
(Come pick me up)
She's telling me to break up
(Ay)
'Cuz you ain't gon' do nothing but hurt me
(Hurt me)
Come get me from the phone booth
It's raining, I'm crying
(I'm all alone, come on)
Damn, I hope he ain't been lying to me
Come get me from the phone booth
My ma just pissed me off
(Pissed me off)
I cant take no more
(Oh)
Can you come and get me?
I've been through so much
(Much)
I can't be
Done like that again
Hope you ain't been running game
(Running)
'Cuz I'm so in need, oh
(Damn, I got me so in need)
I'm in love
(Love)
That's gon' give me
(Give me)
What every girl prays for each day
(Someone who knows how to love)
Damn, I don't see your car
I hope that you're on the way, oh
I'm at the phone booth
My ma just pissed me off
(Pissed me off)
I can't take no more
Can you come and get me from the phone booth?
(Oh, can you come and get me now)
She's telling me to break up
(Break up)
'Cuz you ain't gon' do nothing but hurt me
(Hurt me)
Come get me from the phone booth
(Oh)
It's raining, I'm crying
Damn, I hope he ain't been lying to me
Come get me from the phone booth
(Phone booth)
My ma just pissed me off
I cant take no more
(Oh)
Can you come and get me?
Phone booth
Can you come and get me from the phone booth?
Come get me from the phone booth
Come get me from the phone booth
Can you come and get me?

According to a Billboard.com album review Teairra Mari has a 3.2 (C3-E6) octave vocal range.

Under Big Mike's guidance, Marí spent every free moment in the studio, working with producers and songwriters like Helluvah, Disco D, Big Mike, Chaz M, Detail, Lyriq, AK, and J.R.

K.I.S.S. Productions arranged for Marí to collaborate with artists such as Ray J, J-Kwon, Lola Damone, and Bee and for Marí to appear on Detroit's Fox 2 Morning Show and UPN 50 Sports Rap. In October 2003, the label released Teairra's first album, an EP called Get Away, which included the title track plus four more songs (currently available only on this album) and became a local success.

In the meantime Teairra attended Detroit High School for The Fine and Performing Arts, she went on to attend Fitzgerald High School in Warren, MI right before getting her big break with Jay Z.

At the age of 16, K.I.S.S.' Big Mike felt that Marí was ready for the big time, and he brought her in front of a who's who of label execs.
