r b greaves - take a letter maria lyrics
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.fade out
