Return to sender, return to sender


I gave a letter to the postman
He put it in his sack
Bright an' early next morning
He brought my letter back


She wrote upon it
Return to sender
Address unknown
No such number
No such zone


We had a quarrel, a lovers spat
I write I'm sorry but my letter keeps coming back
So then I dropped it in the mail box and sent it Special D
Bright an' early next morning it come right back to me


She wrote upon it
Return to sender
Address unknown
No such person
No such zone


This time I'm gonnna take it myself
And put it right in her hand
And if it comes back the very next day
Then I'll understand


The writing on it
Return to sender
Address unknown
No such number
No such zone


Return to sender, return to sender, return to sender, return to sender
