Art Garfunkel
Why Don’t You Write Me
[Verse 1]
Why don't you write me?
I'm out in the jungle
I'm hungry to hear you
Send me a card
I am waiting so hard
To be near you
(La, la, la)
Why don't you write?
[Verse 2]
Something is wrong
And I know I got to be there (Yeah)
Maybe I'm lost
But I can't make the cost
Of the airfare
Tell me why, why, why
Tell me why, why, why
[Verse 3]
Why don't you write me?
A letter would brighten
My loneliest evening
Mail it today
If it's only to say
That you're leaving me
(La, la, la)
[Bridge]
Monday morning, sitting in the sun
Hoping and wishing for the mail to come
Tuesday, never got a word
Wednesday, Thursday, ain't no sign
Drank a half a bottle of iodine
Friday, woe is me
I'm gonna hang my body from the highest tree
Why don't you write me?
[Outro]
Why don't you write me?
Why don't you write me?
Why don't you write me?
Why don't you write me?
Why don't you write me?
Why don't you write me?
