Take A Letter, Maria - R.B. Greaves

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.

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

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
