(Bb)Stop!
Whoa yes, wait a min ute mis ter post man, (Gm)wait!
Wait

Please mis ter post man look and see

There must be some word to day
from my boy friend so far a way,

I’ve been stand ing here wait ing, mis ter post man, so

for just a card
or just a let ter,
say ing he’s re turn ing home to me.
