(Bobby Bare - Curtis Leach)
I`ve been writin` Mary Lou letters every day
But I just found out lately how she throws them all away
She don`t even bother to read the things I say
So I`m gonna write just one last time and I`ll begin this way.
I`ll say, oh dear wastebasket care of Mary Lou
If you see her say, I need her like I`ll always do
She won`t read my letters, now I write to you
Dear wastebasket care of Mary Lou.

No she don`t even bother to read the things I say
So I`m gonna write just one last time and I`ll begin this way...
