A minute mister postman
(wait) wait
Mister postman
Please mister postman
Look and see
If there's a letter
In your bag for me
Cause it's been a mighty
Long time
Since I heard from
That boyfriend of mine
There must be
Some word today
From my boyfriend
So far away
Please mister postman
Look and see
If there's a letter
A letter for me
I've been standin' here
Waitin' mister postman
So so patiently
For just a card
Or just a letter
Sayin' he's
Returnin' home to me
Please mister postman
Look and see
If there's a letter
In your bag for me
Cause it's been a mighty
Long time
Since I heard from
That boyfriend of mine
So many days
You passed me by
You saw the tears
Standin' in my eyes
You didn't stop
To make me feel better
By leavin' me
A card or a letter
Please mister postman
Look and see
Is there a letter in your
Bag for me
You know it's
Been so long yeah
Since I heard from
That boyfriend of mine
You gotta wait a minute
Wait a minute
You gotta wait a minute
Please please
Mister postman
Please check it and see
Just one more time
For me you gotta wait
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
Please mister postman

Wait a minute
Wait a minute
Wait a minute
Please mister postman
Wait a minute
