When the mailman came to our house this morning

But when I opened up and read your last letter,

Then I knew that I would wait for him no more.

Cause you said, Dear One, there's something that I

have to tell you.

Dear One, there's something that I have to say, yay-yay.

Dear One, he's tall, dark, and well, you know how it is.

And Dear One, he stole my heart away.

Not to hurt you bad (not to hurt you bad.)
