about

Save The US Postal Service! This song is for all postal employees and the day we celebrate their tireless work, Boxing Day.

lyrics

I wrote you a letter on Boxing Day
But that mean ol' mailman must've thrown it away
I'll try it again on some other day
When I remember just what I said

Valentine's had left us sad and soft
Christmas and New Years gone done lost my card
This ain't no spooky Halloween song
So I'll remember you on Boxing Day

Post Office doors don't you close down tonight
We got letters and letters and letters left to write
Mean Mr. Mailman don't you throw it away
Bring me those parcels on Boxing Day

(Postal Preaching)

I wrote you a letter on Boxing Day
That tired, old, overworked mailman must've thrown it away
I'll try it again on some other day
When I remember just what I said.
