(Stop)
Oh yes, wait a minute
Mr. Postman
(Wait)
Wait Mr. Postman

R: Please Mr. Postman look and see
   (Oh yeah)
   If there's a letter in your bag for me
   (Please, Please, Mr. Postman)
   Why's it takin' 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 Mr. Postman
Look and see
If there's a letter
A letter for me

I've been standin' here 
Waitin' Mr. Postman
So patiently
For just a card
Or just a letter
Sayin' he's returning'
Home to me
Mr. Postman

R:

So many days
You passed me by
See the tears
Standin' in my eyes
You didn't stop
To make me feel better
By leavin' me
A card or a letter
Mr. Postman

R:

(Why don't you check it and see one more time
for me you gotta)
Wait a minute, wait a minute...
(Mr. Postman)
Mr. Postman look and see

(C'mon deliver the letter, the sooner, the better)
Mr. Postman
