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 cardI 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 whyWhy 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 signDrank 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?
