Special Delivery Blues

My man packed his trunks, said, "I'm a-goin' away,"
Packed his trunks and said, "I'm goin' away
And I won't be back until ya change your funny ways."

And he said, "I'm leavin', baby and it almost breaks my heart
I'm leavin' you baby, almost breaks my heart
But, remember, sometime the best of friends must part."

And he said, "I'm leavin', baby and it almost breaks my heart
I'm leavin' you baby, almost breaks my heart
But, remember, sometime the best of friends must part."

Well I ran to my window, train go passin' by
Ran to window, train go passin' by
I got the blues so bad that I could lay me down and die

I said, hey, mister mailman, did ya bring me any nеws?
Oh, mister mailman, did you bring me any news?
Wеll, if you didn't thet get me the special delivery blues

He said, "I'll write you baby soon's I find the time
Honey, I'll write you soon's I find the time."
I guess he couldn't spare the dime
