The Mailman

[Verse 1]
Bearer of bad news
Carrier of good news
You never know what's in his pack
When you've got bills due
He hands you the sad news
From that leather pouch slung from his back

[Chorus]
No matter what the weather is
Rain, sleet or snow
Even when the going's rough
The mail still has to go
Even though his feet hurt
He's still got a job to do
Making sure the mail gets through to you

[Verse 2]
He wades through a long week
Of bad dogs with sharp teeth
And there's complaints he has to listen to
A "thank you" and a soft smile
Make it all seem worthwhile
When folks receive a monthly check that's duе

[Verse 3]
You stay in touch with folks at home
Through letters that hе brings
And pictures in an envelope
Show how the family's changed
When you write a letter
To someone who's in love with you
He's the one who gets your message through

[Chorus]
No matter what the weather is
Rain, sleet or snow
Even when the going's rough
The mail still has to go
Even though his feet hurt
He's still got a job to do
Making sure the mail gets through to you
Making sure the mail gets through to you
