Please Mr. Postman

Oh yes, wait a minute Mister Postman

Wait Mister Postman

Please Mister Postman, look and see

If there's a letter in your bag for me

Why's it takin' a mighty long time?

For me to hear from this boyfriend of mine

There must be some word today

From my boyfriend, so far away

Please Mister Postman, look and see

If there's a letter, a letter for me

I've been standin' here, waitin' Mister Postman

So, so patiently

For just a card, or just a letter

Sayin' he's returnin' home to me

Mister Postman, look and see

If there's a letter in your bag for me

Why's it takin' a mighty long time?

For me to hear from this boyfriend of mine

So many days you passed me by

You saw the tears, standin' in my eyes

You wouldn't stop to make me feel better

By leavin' me a card or a letter

Please Mister Postman, look and see

If there's a letter, oh yeah, in your bag for me

You know it's been so long

Yes, since I heard from this boyfriend of mine

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute

You better wait a minute

Please, please Mister Postman

Please check and see, just one more time, for me

You better wait, wait a minute

Wait a minute, wait a minute

Wait a minute, please Mister Postman

Deliver the letter, it's already better

Wait a minute, wait a minute

Wait a minute, please Mister Postman

Wait a, wait a minute, wait a minute
