Текст Marty Robbins – Respectfully Miss Brooks
Текст:
I got a letter from my baby
Came in the mail yesterday
She had an awful lot on her mind
She had an awful lot to say
Just like a used to be
Well, I know by heart the words she wrote to me
Oh yeah, well, well
She said, «Dear Mister Johnson
Please sent back the letter that
I wrote you long time ago
We were kids, thought we were in love.»
Oh yeah, well
She said, «Dear Mister Johnson
Please send back a picture that we took.»
And it was signed respectfully, Miss Brooks
Oh yeah, well, well
Well I cried and I cried and I cried some more
I fell right down and I cried on the floor
I was hurtin’ way down deep inside
Where it don’t show, don’t show
Well, I never felt so bad in my whole life
Thought Miss Brooks was gonna be my wife
But I done found out how wrong a man in love can be
Oh yeah
Well, I cried yesterday and all last night
Nothin’ ever gonna be alright
Oh, well I called Miss Brooks on the phone
And here’s what I said well, I cried, I said now
Please-se-se-se don’t-o-o-on’t make-a-a-ake me send you
Wrote me long time ago-o-o
Please-se-se-se don’t-o-o-on’t make-a-a-ake me
Send you back the pictures that we took
Cause I still love you Miss Brooks
Well I cried and I cried and I cried some more
Fell right down and I cried on the floor
I was hurtin’ way down deep inside
Where it don’t show, oh, well, well
Well, I never felt so bad in my whole life
I thought Miss Brooks was gonna be my wife
But I done found out how wrong a man in love can be
