[Verse 1]

I used to take the subway

To 42nd and Broadway

Check my downtown mailbox

Check my downtown mailbox

Always felt much better

When I got me a letter

In my downtown mailbox

In my downtown mailbox

[Chorus 1]

Send me a letter

Send it to me when you wanna reach me

Might be in California

New York City or Nashville

Tennessee

[Verse 2]

Baby and I had a fight

I couldn't sleep last night

Thought he didn't want me no more

Thought he didn't want me no more

I was satisfied

When I went outside

Found a letter on my front door

Letter on my front door

[Chorus 2]

Send me a letter

Send it to me when you wanna reach me

Might be in California, New York City or Nashville, Tennessee

Early in the day, late at night

Whatever you're feeling, you could always write

Send me a letter

Send it to me when you wanna reach me

[Instrumental Bridge]

Ooh

[Verse 3]

It wasn't very funny

I didn't have much money

There was not much food on the table

Not much food on the table

I was feeling pretty low

I heard a knock at my door

It was Western Union with a cable

Western Union with a cable

[Chorus 3]

Send me a letter

Send it to me when you wanna reach me

Might be in California, New York City or Nashville, Tennessee

Early in the day, late at night

Whatever you're feeling, always write

Send me a letter

Send it to me when you wanna reach me

Send me a letter

Send it to me when you wanna reach me

[Outro]

Send me, send me

Send me a letter

Send me, send me

Send me a letter

Send me, send me

Send me a letter
