Lyrics

I gave a letter to the mailman He put it in his back Bright in early next morning He brought that letter back And the writing said Return to sender, address unknown And no such number, and no such zone When we had a quarrel, just a lover's spat I keep writing that I'm sorry but my letter keeps coming right back So when I took it to the mailbox And this time, I sent it special D But bright in early next morning Well, it came right back to me And the writing said Return to sender, address unknown And no such person, that was completely unknown This time I'm gonna take it myself Put it right in her hand And if it comes back the very next day Well I'll guess I'll just have to understand once it says Return to sender, address unknown And no such person, and no such zone Return to sender, address unknown And ain't no such person, no, and ain't no such zone Return to sender, well it keeps coming on back Address unknown, well I don't know why I don't know why it says, it got the right address right on it If you keep sending it back and ain't to the post office Well I know that, it's you! And how come you won't talk to me? I'll come over by, (?) won't need anything I need you baby.
