(Stop)
Oh yes, wait a minute Mister Postman
(Wait)
Wait Mister Postman
Please Mister Postman look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me
(Please, Please Mister Postman)
Why's it takin' such a long time
For me to hear from that boy of mine
There must be some word today
From my boy-friend so far away
Please Mister Postman look and see
If there's letter, a letter for me
I've been standin' here waitin' Mister Postman
So patiently
For just a card or just a letter
Sayin' he's returnin' home to me
(Mister Postman)
Mister Postman look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me
(Please, Please Mister Postman)
Why's it takin' such a long time
For me to hear from that boy of mine
So many days You passed me by
Shed tears standin' in my eyes
You didn't stop to make me feel better
By leavin' me a card or a letter
(Mister Postman)
Mister Postman look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me
(Please, Please Mister Postman)
Why's it takin' such a long time
(Why don't you check it and see one more time for me you gotta)
Wait a minute Wait a minute
Wait a minute Wait a minute
(Mister Postman)
Mister Postman look and see
(C'mon deliver the letter the sooner the better)
Mister Postman
