作词 : Earl, Peverett, Price | |
Woke up this mornin' and I crawled out of bed, | |
I made a cup of coffee just to clear my head. | |
I felt all right 'til I looked on the floor, | |
There was a pile of bills stacked against the door. | |
I went in the kitchen and drank another cup, | |
I sat down at the table and added it up. | |
When I discovered how much I owe, | |
I said, ooh, ooh, it's time to go. | |
Mailman stay away from my door, | |
Got too many bills I don't need no more, | |
I don't know what I'm gonna do, but while I'm deciding, | |
To save my soul, I'm going to find me a hole to hide in, | |
{Instrumental} | |
Everyday it's the same old thing, | |
I know in advance what the man's gonna bring. | |
Registered letters from all over town, | |
Those final reminders are gettin' me down. | |
I once had money, but it's all been spent, | |
And now the landlord said he needs the rent. | |
Telephone company cuttin' off my phone, | |
Why don't they all just leave me alone? | |
Mailman keep away from my door, | |
Got too many bills I don't need no more. | |
I don't know what I'm gonna do, but while I'm deciding, | |
To save my soul, I'm going to find me a hole to hide in. | |
Mailman, stay away from my door. | |
Mailman stay away from my door. | |
Mailman stay away from my door. | |
Mailman yea, stay away from my door, whoo |
