[Intro]
Wait, oh yes wait a minute mister postman
Wait, wait mister postman
[Chorus]
Mister postman look and see
Is there a letter in your bag for me
I been waiting a long long time
Since I heard from that girl of mine
[Verse 1]
There must be some word today
From my girlfriend so far away
Please Mister postman look and see
If there's a letter, a letter for me
I been standing here waiting Mister postman
So patiently
For just a card or just a letter
Saying she's returning home to me
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
So many days you pa**ed me by
See the tear standing in my eye
You didn't stop to make me feel better
By leaving me a card or a letter
[Chorus]
[Outro]
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta check it and see, one more time for me
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
Deliver the letter, the sooner the better
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
