Baby, when you receive this letter
I hope it will explain
Yes, baby, when you receive this letter
I hope it will explain
ย
Because I was true and faithful
And I'm home in bed and sick with pain
ย
All my friends told me
That you were just a clown
Still I let your sweet words
Let my love come tumblin' down
Yes, I've got 'em
Got those letter writin' blues
ย
Forget the dirt you did me
You can have me anytime you choose
ย
They said you're just a sweet man
Just like a plum or prune
All you need do is whistle
And I'll be lovin' you 'til next June
Yes, I've got them
Yes, I've got them letter writin' blues
ย
Forget the dirt you did me
You can have me anytime you choose
ย
Now, I wrote you six or eight times
Or maybe three or four
The postman returned them all
And said to me, "You're just a constant bore"
Yes, I've got them
Yes, I've got them letter writin' blues
ย
Forget the dirt you did me
You can have me anytime you choose
