The Marvelettes - Soul Story USA (Remastered)

Please Mr. Postman (Remastered)

(Wait) oh, yes, wait a minute, Mr. Postman
(Wait) wa-a-a-ait, Mr. Postman

Please, Mr. Postman, look and see (whoa, yeah)
Is there a letter in your bag for me? (Please, please, Mr. Po-o-ostman)
'Cause it's been a mighty long time (whoa, yeah)
Since I heard from this boyfriend of mine

There must be some word today
From my boyfriend who's so far away
Please, Mr. Postman, look and see
Is there a letter, a letter for me?

I've been standin' here waitin', Mr. Postman (wait, wait for you)
So-o, so patiently (wait, wait for you)
For just a card or just a letter (wait, wait for you)
Sayin' he's returnin' home to me

Please, Mr. Postman, please, Mr. Postman, look and see (whoa, yeah)
Is there a letter in your bag for me? (Please, please, Mr. Po-o-ostman)
'Cause it's been a mighty long time (whoa, yeah)
Since I heard from this boyfriend of mine

So many days, you've passed me by (wait, Mr. Postman)
You saw the tears standin' in my eye (wait, Mr. Postman)
You wouldn't stop to make me feel better (wait, Mr. Postman)
By leavin' me a card or a letter

Please, Mr. Postman, look and see (postman, postman)
Is there a letter, oh, yeah, in your bag for me? (Postman, postman)
You know it's been so long (postman, postman)
Yeah, since I heard from this boyfriend of mine (postman, postman)

You better wait a minute, wait a minute (wait, wait a minute, Mr. Postman)
Oh, you better wait a minute (wait, wait a minute, Mr. Postman)
Please, please, Mr. Postman (wait, wait a minute, Mr. Postman)
Please check and see just one more time for me

You better wait, wait a minute (wait, wait a minute, Mr. Postman)
Wait a minute, wait a minute, wait a minute (wait, wait a minute, Mr. Postman)
Please, Mr. Postman (wait, wait a minute, Mr. Postman)
Deliver the letter, the sooner, the better

Wait a minute, wait a minute (wait, wait a minute, Mr. Postman)
Wait a minute, please, Mr. Postman, wait (wait, wait a minute, Mr. Postman)
Wait a minute, wait a minute (wait, wait a minute, Mr. Postman), oh, oh, oh
