Write me a letter
Say I'm still your fella
'Cause I'm lonesome
Lonesome as a man can be
'Cause I haven't been myself
Since you said goodbye to me
Yes, I wrote my gal a letter
And this is what I had to say
Yes, I wrote my gal a letter
And this is what I had to say
Man, you'd know how I feel
If you ever had a gal like me
I said, let me hear from you, baby
Let me hear from you right away
Yes, let me hear from you, baby
Please let me hear from you, babe
'Cause I haven't been myself, baby
Since you went away
When you were here with me, baby
I took you for a square
Now I'm bitin' off my nails
And pullin' out my hair
Write me, honey
Well, well, baby
Yes, just write me, baby
Yes, I'm walkin' 'round in circles
But it ain't no fault of mine
Yes, keep walkin' 'round in circles
But it ain't no fault of mine
I miss you so much
You've been gone such a long, long time
I can't eat, sleep, I'm pacin' the floor
You got me doin' things, baby
That I never did before
(Been a long time, baby, since I heard from you)
Well, baby
(So darn worried, don't know what to do)
Yes, honey
(The neighbors say that I'm blowin' my top)
Well, yeah
('Cause the mailman passes and he never stops)
So write me a letter
Say I'm still your fella
'Cause I won't be myself
'Til you hurry home to me
