Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
'Cause I haven't been myself, baby, since you went away
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Write me, honey
Well, oh, 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 been gone such a long, long time
[Verse 5]
I can't eat, sleep, I'm pacin' the floor
You got me doin' things, baby, that I never did before
[Verse 6]
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 goin' lights out (Yeah, yeah)
'Cause the mailman passes and he never stops
[Verse 7]
So write me a letter
Say I'm still your fella
'Cause I won't be myself till you hurry on to me
