Lyrics
I'm in this city, this great big city
I've got no neighbor to care about me
I've got no friend to lend me a cellphone
To lend me a cellphone
So I can go back home
I see this young man, got a brand new cellphone
He got a brand new cellphone in his right hand
So, I asked this young man
Can I use your cellphone? Can I use your cellphone?
So I can go back home
And he says 'no, no, no
You cannot use my phone'
And he says 'no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
You can't go back home'
So, I'm in this city, this lonely city
I've got no neighbor to care about me
I've got no friend to lend me a cellphone
To lend me a cellphone
So I can go back home
I see this lady, serving her community
At the soup kitchen, she's handing out food
So, I asked this lady, 'excuse me lady
Can I use your cellphone? So I can go back home?'
And she says 'no, no, no
You cannot use my phone'
She says 'no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
You can't use my cellphone'
So, I ran to my Lord, I asked my Jesus
You care about me
To send me a friend so I can use their cellphone
I can use their cellphone and finally be home
As I fainted on my knees
Up comes this young boy with a real old cell phone
With a real old cell phone from like 2001
So I asked this young boy, can I use your cellphone?
Can I use your cellphone?
So I can go back home
And he says yes, yes, yes
You can use my phone
He says yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes
I can help you go home
