Lyrics:
an old, old friend
Just like a used to be
Well, I know by heart the words
She wrote to me
Oh yeah, well, well
She said, "Dear Mister Johnson
Please sent
She wrote me only one sad night,
Told me she's no longer mine.
Sue sue mailman, that will do for sometime.
Mailman, bring me no more blues.
My wild love went ridin'
She rode all the day
She wrote to the devil
And asked him to pay
The devil was wiser
It's time to repent
He asked her
[Verse 1]
I be the one with the women by the dozen
I get em all; sister, friend, or cousin
I never thought I'd be the one to fall in love
Then she
My wild love went ridin'
She rode all the day
She wrote to the devil
And asked him to pay
The devil was wiser
It's time to repent
He asked her
wrote you a song.
All these thoughts I've been dreaming
Somehow I've got to make them right,
Got to make them belong.
Everytime that you're here
I got home today
Took a look around
Trying to find that girl of mine
She could not be found
All her things were gone
She just left a note
It
than a memory
Took a match to everything she ever wrote
Watched her words go up in smoke
Tore all the pictures off the wall
But that ain't helping
whispers “tis the fairy
the Lady of Shalott.”
There she weaves by night and day
A magic web with colours gay.
She has heard a whisper say,
A curse is on her
time after a letter was wrote
For to see if my dear Dinah had changed her mind
But she wrote that she'd lived such a contrary life
She said that she
ever turn her down?
There's not a drink that I think could sink her
How would I tell her that she's all I think about?
Well, I guess she just found
passed a plate around
Total strangers
Moved to kindness by my story
Raised enough for me to book passage on a
Ship that was New York bound
I wrote
as a token
She sent it just to light'n my gloom
To tell me that her heart was broken
To cheer me before I meet my doom
She wrote I took it from the garden
best years
Yes, something like that'll shake you up
Wake you up
So I stopped off at a Texaco
Bought a Slim Jim and a Coke
Parked out by the water
incessantly she wrote to me
She'd started smoking poetry!
I laughed in recognition of a favorite phrase
She'd pulled me in
I answered her
A Christmas card,
Wyclef on guitar
With the Black Eyed Peas
They wrote a rap song, they wanna sing it to y'all
She like a rap song (she like a rap song)
She like
to get along
And he won't get a chance again
That's all she wrote
"Dear John", I sent your saddle home"
She didn't forward no address
No she never
Oooh, ooh, mmmm
Oooh, ooh, oh, mm
That's all she wrote
The sun pokes through my windows in the morning
I pray to God not to let me dream again about
me as a token
She sent it just to lighten my gloom
And tell me that her heart was broken
And cheer me before I meet my doom
She wrote I picked it
than a memory
Took a match to everything she ever wrote
Watched her words go up in smoke
Tore all the pictures off the wall
But that ain't helping
we drifted from each other's heart
At first I thought it was just restlessness
That would fade as time went by and our love grew deep
In the end
Mailman, bring me no more blues
Mailman, bring me no more blues
One little letter is all I can use
She wrote me only one sad line
Mr.
Mailman, bring me no more blues
Mailman, bring me no more blues
One little letter is all I can use
She wrote me only one sad line
Told me,
and white
Inside information, taken down note by note
A silent footstep, that's all she wrote
Shit, that's all she wrote
No need to worry, the baby's
