Why Don't You Write Me

Why don't you write me

I'm out in the jungle

I'm hungry to hear you

Send me a card

I am waiting so hard to be near you

Something is wrong and I know I got a feelin'

Maybe I'm lost but I can't make the cost of the airfare

Tell me why, tell me why

Why don't you write me

A letter would brighten my loneliest evening

Mail it today if it's only to say

That you're leaving me

Why don't you write

Monday morning sitting in the sun

Hopin' and wishin' that the mail would come

Tuesday I never got a word

Wednesday,, Thursday ain't no sign

Drank a half a bottle of iodine

Friday, woe is me

I'm gonna hang my body from the highest tree

Why don't you write me

Why don't you write me
