& His

KEYS IN THE MAILBOX
(Harlan Howard)
 

Oh jealous me and careless you the odds were just too great
I couldn't take those lonely nights you made me sit and wait
I thought I'd seen the last of you when you walked out of sight
Instead I see you in my dreams each night
 

Oh the key's in the mailbox come on in
I'm sittin' here wishing dear I had your love again
I'd never even ask you where you've been
The key's in the mailbox come on in
 

I said I'd rather be alone than share your company
I said don't come around at all if you want more than me
but I'm sittin' here alone I can't deny this flame has burned
but just to have you back how my heart yearns
 

Oh the key's in the mailbox come on in
I'm sittin' here wishing dear I had your love again
I'd never even ask you where you've been
The key's in the mailbox come on in
The key's in the mailbox come on in
