Pickin' up the mail is no more fun letters that I wait for never come
Bills and bills and penny sells are hardly worth to run
Pickin' up the mail is no more fun

There used to be a letter from you almost every day
I'd see the mailmail comin' and go runnin' all the way
I guess you went out of stamps or in to someone new
Letters that I wait for are a long time overdue
Pickin' up the mail is no more fun
[ guitar ]
You could've found another and you're just ashamed to say
Your love for me is over that you said was here to stay
I outlook for another until you say we're through
But how am I to know it if I never hear from you
Pickin' up the mail is no more fun
Pickin' up the mail is no more fun pickin' up the mail is no more fun
