(Wait)
Oh, yes, wait a minute, Mr. Postman
(Wait)
Wait, Mr. Postman

(Mr. Postman, look and see) oh, yeah
(Is there a letter in your bag for me)
Please, please, Mr. Postman
(I've been waiting a long, long time) oh, yeah
(Since I heard from that girl of mine)

There must be some word someday
From my girlfriend so far away
Please, Mr. Postman look and see
If there's a letter, a letter for me

I've been standing here waiting, Mr. Postman
So patiently
For just a card or just a letter
Saying she's returning home to me

Please, Mr. Postman
(Mr. Postman, look and see) oh, yeah
(Is there a letter in your bag for me)
Please, please, Mr. Postman
(I've been waiting a long, long time) oh, yeah
(Since I heard from that girl of mine)

So many days you passed me by
See the tear standing in my eye
You didn't stop to make me feel better
By leaving me a card or a letter

Mr. Postman (Mr. Postman) look and see
If there's a letter, oh, yeah, for me (is there a letter in your bag for me)
I've been waiting such a long time (I've been waiting a long, long time)
Since I heard from that girlfriend of mine (since I heard from that girl of mine)

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute, oh, yeah (Mr. Postman)
Wait a minute, wait a minute, oh, yeah (Mr. Postman)
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute, oh, yeah (Mr. Postman)
Check and see one more time for me

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute, oh, yeah (Mr. Postman)
Wait a minute, wait a minute, oh, yeah (Mr. Postman)
Mr. Postman, oh, yeah (Mr. Postman)
Deliver the letter, the sooner the better

You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute, oh, yeah (Mr. Postman)
Wait a minute, wait a minute, oh, yeah (oh-oh-oh, Mr. Postman)
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute, oh, yeah (Mr. Postman)
You gotta wait a minute, wait a minute, oh, yeah (Mr. Postman)
