[Verse 1]
Nancy, where have you been sleeping?
Your doctor phones me everyday
And your mother wants to see you in safe keeping
And your mother wants your father to pay
[Chorus]
There are no letters in the mailbox
There are no grapes upon the vine
There are no chocolates in the boxes anymore
And there are no diamonds in the mine
And there are no diamonds in the mine
[Verse 2]
I hear that you went into a convеnt
And the nuns couldn't do enough for you therе
When you left, all the nuns, they were wearing
Those false eyelashes made of human hair
[Chorus]
There are no letters in the mailbox
There are no grapes upon the vine
There are no chocolates in the boxes anymore
And there are no diamonds in the mine
And there are no diamonds in the mine
[Verse 3]
Oh won't you send me a little telegram?
I thought you knew the lonesome kind of man I am
Oh, Nancy, were you training me
To say goodbye more gracefully?
[Chorus]
There are no letters in the mailbox
There are no grapes upon the vine
There are no chocolates in the boxes anymore
And there are no diamonds in the mine
[Outro]
And there are no clothes upon the clothesline
And there are no sheets upon the bed
And there are no agents to decifer, darlin'
All those thoughts that go on in your head
