Lyrics Why Don't You Write Me? - Ruth Brown
Why
don′t
you
write
me,
I'm
out
in
the
jungle,
I′m
hungry
to
hear
you.
Send
me
a
card,
I
am
waiting
so
hard
To
be
near
you.
(La,
la,
la)
Why
don't
you
write?
Something
is
wrong
And
I
know
I
got
to
be
there.
Maybe
I'm
lost,
But
I
can′t
make
the
cost
Of
the
airfare.
Tell
me
why
Why
Why
Tell
me
why
Why
Why
Why
don′t
you
write
me,
A
letter
would
brighten
My
loneliest
evening.
Mail
it
today
If
it's
only
to
say
That
you′re
leaving
me.
(La,
la,
la)
Monday
morning,
sitting
in
the
sun
Hoping
and
wishing
for
the
mail
to
come.
Tuesday,
never
got
a
word,
Wednesday,
Thursday,
ain't
no
sign,
Drank
a
half
a
bottle
of
iodine.
Friday,
woe
is
me
Gonna
hang
my
body
from
the
highest
Tree.
Why
don′t
you
write
me?
