(Stop!)
Oh yes, wait a minute, Mr. Postman!
(Wait!)
Wait, Mr. Postman!
(Please Mr. Postman, look and see)
Oh, yeah
(If there's a letter in your bag for me)
Please, please, Mr. Postman
(Why's it takin' such a long time)
Oh, yeah
(For me to hear from that boy of mine?)
There must be some word today
From my boyfriend so far away
Please Mr. Postman, look and see
If there's a letter, a letter for me.
I've been standin' here waitin', Mr. Postman
So patiently
For just a card or just a letter
Sayin' he's returning home to me
Mr. Postman, oh yeah
(Mr. Postman, look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me)
Please, please, Mr. 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
See the tears standin' in my eyes
You didn't stop to make me feel better
By leavin' me a card or a letter.
Mr. Postman, oh yeah
(Mr. Postman, look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me)
Please, please, Mr. 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...
Mr. Postman
(Mr. Postman look and see)
C'mon, deliver the letter,
The sooner the better
(Mr. Postman...)
