Mr Postman Blues

Hey, Mr. Postman, did my man write to me today?
Hey, Mr. Postman, did my man write to me today?
I wrote lette'-letter last Monday, seen the mailman carry it away"

That mailman told me, "I have you some very sad news"
That mailman told me, "I have you some very sad news
I know you wrote out a-last Monday, but I have nothing for you"

"Please, Mr. Postman, call my man over the phone
Please, Mr. Postman, call my man over the phone
Tell 'I'm I'm down with a fever, I've even mortgaged my home"

It was early that next mornin', that mailman knocked on my door
It was early that next mornin', the mailman knocked on my door
Said, "Here's your answer, lady, your man ain't comin' here no more"

"Look here, Mr. Postman, don't bring me no more sad news
Look here, Mr. Postman, don't bring me no more sad news
That's the very reason, I've got the mailman blues"
