| 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,
|
| 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 |
