Album: All-American Boy [Bear Family]
(Bobby Bare - Curtis Leach)
I've been writin' Mary Lou letters every day
But I just found out lately how she throws them all away
She don't even bother to read the things I say
So I'm gonna write just one last time and I'll begin this way.
I'll say, oh Dear Wastebasket care of Mary Lou
If you see her say, I need her like I'll always do
She won't read my letters, now I write to you
Dear wastebasket care of Mary Lou.
--- Instrumental ---
No she don't even bother to read the things I say
So I'm gonna write just one last time and I'll begin this way...
