Write Me a Few Lines

Yeah, when you get home, baby then

Please, won't you write me a few of your lines

Yeah, when you get home, pretty darling

Please, won't you sit down

And write me a few of your lines?

Yeah, so to be consolation

To my worried mind

I left my baby

Standin' in the back door cryin'

Yeah and I left my baby

Standin' in the back door cryin'

I've never felt so tired

When she said goodbye

I think I'd go down to the river

I sat myself down on the ground

Yep, I think I'll go down to the river

I sat myself down on the ground

Yeah, let the wave above the water

Walk my trouble down

Yeah, when you get home, pretty baby

Please, won't you write me a few of your lines

Yes, when you get home, darling

Please, won't you sit down

And write me a few of your lines?

Yeah, so to be consolation

To my worried mind
