Wait, wait a minute Mr. Postman
Wait Mr. Postman
Mr. Postman look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me
I've been waiting a long, long time
For that boyfriend, boyfriend of mine

Oh, there must be some word today
Oh, from my boyfriend so far away
Please, Mr. Postman look and see
If there's a letter, a letter for me

I've been standing here waiting Mr. Postman
So patiently
For just a card, a little letter
Oh, saying he's returning home to me
Oh, stop! Wait!
Mr. Postman!

Just look and see
If there's a letter for me
I've been waiting a long, long time
Oh, for a letter from that boy of mine

So many days you've passed me by
Oh, see the tears running in my eyes
You never stop to make me feel better
By leaving me a card or a letter
Oh, Mr. Postman
Oh, look and see
There must be something for me
Oh, it's been too long

You've gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
Just wait a minute, wait a minute
Oh, wait a minute, wait a minute
Oh, check it and see just one more time for me

Wait a minute, wait a minute
Oh, wait a minute
Just wait a minute, wait a minute
Yeah, deliver the letter
The sooner, the better
Mr. Postman
Oh, Mr. Postal Worker
Oh, please, please, please

La la la la, la la la
La la la la, la la la
