Текст песни Special Delivery - Odetta

My man packed his trunks, said, "I'm a-goin' away,"
Packed his trunks and said, "I'm goin' away
And I won't be back until ya change your funny ways."

And he said, "I'll write you soon's I find the time
Honey, I'll write you soon's I find the time."
He's been gone so long, I guess he just couldn't spare the dime

And he said, "I'm leavin', almost breaks my heart
Honey, I'm leavin', almost breaks my heart
But, remember, sometime the best of friends must part."

And I run, run to my window, train go rollin' by
Run to window, train go rollin' by
I got the blues so bad that I could lay me down and die

Now, hey, hey, mister mailman, did ya bring me any news?
Hey, mister mailman, bring me any news?
Well, if I didn't get a letter, I got the special delivery blues
