Red Foley - At Mail Call Today lyrics

rate me

t mail call to-day love your last letter came,

I just stood there smiling till they called my name;

As I read it over my skies turned to grey,

And tears dimmed my eyes love, at mail call today.

I can't understand love what happened to you,

The day that I sailed love you said you'd be true;

But now it's all over, what more can I say,

My poor heart was broken at mail call today.

I slept in the foxhole amid shot and shell,

I'm telling you darling it's worse than all hell;

I thought you would wait love while I was away,

But my castles tumbled at mail call today.

I hope you'll be happy with somebody new,

But always remember my heart beats for you;

Good luck and God bless you wherever you stray,

The world for me ended at mail call today.
