Take a Letter Maria |
Last night, as I got home, about a half past ten |
There was the woman I thought I knew in the arms of another man. |
I kept my cool, I ain’t no fool. |
Let me tell ya what happened then. |
I packed some clothes and I walked out .and I ain’t goin' back again. |
Chorus |
So take a letter Maria. |
address it to my wife |
Say I won’t be coming home. |
gotta start a new life |
Oh Take a letter Maria. |
address it to my wife |
Send a copy to my lawyer. |
gotta start a new life |
You’ve been many things but most of all a good secretary to me And it’s time like this I feel, you’ve always been close to me Was I wrong to work nights, to try to build a good life? |
All work, and no play has just cost me a wife |
Chorus |
So take a letter Maria. |
address it to my wife |
Say I won’t be coming home. |
gotta start a new life |
Take a letter Maria. |
address it to my wife |
Send a copy to my lawyer, gotta have a new life |
When a man loves a woman, it’s hard to understand |
That she would find pleasure in the arms of another man |
I never really noticed, how sweet you are to me It just so happens I’m free tonight, would you like to have dinner with me? |
So take a letter Maria. |
address it to my wife |
Say I won’t be coming home. |
gonna start a new life |
Ohhhh, Take a letter Maria. |
address it to my wife |
Send a copy to my lawyer. |
Gonna have a new life |
Take a letter Maria. |
address it to my wife |
Say I won’t be coming home. |
