Lyrics

Stop
Whoa yes, wait a minute, mister Postman
Wait
Wait, mister Postman
Please mister Postman, look and see
Oh, yeah (If there's a letter in your bag for me)
Please, please mister Postman (Why's it taking 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, mister Postman, look and see
If there's a letter, a letter for me
I've been standing here waiting, mister Postman
So patiently
For just a card, or just a letter
Saying he's returning home to me
Mister Postman (Mister Postman, look and see)
Whoa, yeah (If there's a letter in your bag for me)
Please, please, mister Postman (Why's it taking such a long time?)
Whoa, yeah (For me to hear from that boy of mine)
Ah, ah, ah
So many days you've passed me by
See the tears standing in my eyes
You didn't stop to make me feel better
By leaving me a card or a letter
Mister Postman (Mister Postman, look and see)
Whoa, yeah (If there's a letter in your bag for me)
Please, please, mister Postman (Why's it taking 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
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, mister Postman (Mister Postman, look and see)
Come on deliver the letter, the sooner, the better
Ah
Mister Postman
Ah
Ah
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah
