Why Don't You Write Me

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?)
 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)
 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)
 ♪
 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?
 Why don't you write me?
 Why don't you write me?
 Why don't you write me?
 Why don't you write me?
