Please Mr. Postman

The Marvelettes



(Stop)

Oh 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 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

Pleas Mister Postman, look and see

If there's a letter, a letter for me



I've been standin' here waitin' Mister Postman

So patiently

For just a card, or just a letter

Sayin' he's returnin' home to me



(Mister Postman)

Mister Postman, look and see

(Oh yeah)

If there's a letter in your bag for me

(Please, Please Mister Postman)

Why's it takin' such a long time

(Oh yeah)

For me to hear from that boy of mine



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



(Mister Postman)

Mister Postman, look and see

(Oh yeah)

If there's a letter in your bag for me

(Please, Please Mister Postman)

Why's it takin' 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

(Mister Postman)

Mister Postman, look and see



(C'mon deliver the letter, the sooner the better)

Mister Postman
