Still Getting Your Mail

I am still getting your mail now
And it has been two years
I open up these letters for a man that isn't here
You never lived in this house
What is known is not quite clear
And I am still getting your mail now
And it has been two years
St. Jude's Children's Hospital
Left a message at the door
They sent you some free stamps because you gave to them before
And drawings by young kids that hope their future is what's in store
St Jude's Children's Hospital
Left a message at the door
And I can't tell
If the post is playing tricks on me
Or if it's just as well a simple case of cruel irony
That someone, somewhere is shipping out to me
An address on a metal box
Will tell you where I’ve been
I didn’t want to leave until I found myself again
I couldn’t see out and I can’t see in
I’ll escape with just a ballpoint pen
An address on a metal box
Will tell you where I’ve been
And I can't tell
If the post is playing tricks on me
Or if it's just as well a simple case of cruel irony
That someone, somewhere is shipping out to me

Won't you let me walk you home from school?
Won't you let me meet you at the pool?
Maybe Friday I can
Get tickets for the dance
And I'll take you
Won't you tell your dad "get off my back"
Tell him what we said 'bout "Paint It Black"
Rock 'n Roll is here to stay
Come inside where it's okay
And I'll shake you
Won't you tell me what you're thinking of?
Would you be an outlaw for my love?
If it's so, well, let me know
If it's no, well, I can go
I won't make you

Way up yonder above the sky
A bluebird lived in a jaybird's eye
Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go
Buckeye Jim
Way up yonder above the moon
A blue jay nest in a silver spoon
Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go
Buckeye Jim
Way down yonder in a wooden trough
An old woman died of the whoopin' cough
Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go
Buckeye Jim
Way down yonder in a hollow log
A red bird danced with a green bullfrog
Buckeye Jim, you can't go
Go weave and spin, you can't go
Buckeye Jim
