Lyrics

Baby, when you receive this letter I hope it will explain Yes baby, when you receive this letter I hope it will explain Because I was too unfaithful And I'm home in bed and sick with pain All my friends told me, that you were just a clown Still I let your sweet words and let my love come tumblin' down Yes, I've got 'em Got those letter writin' blues Forget the dirt you did me You can have me any time you choose They say 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 Forget the dirt you did me You can have me any time you choose 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 man Yes I've got them letter writin' blues Forget the dirt you did me You can have me any time you choose
