I decided one day to write you a letter and tell you how much I care
And about how it feels when you walk beside me and the joy of being a pair
I remember the day we got together I remember it like today
I was struck by lightning thats why Im writing a letter to lulu-mae
You were standing on the porch as I drove up the driveway as lovely as one can be
You would make any man so greatful of living and you choose a man like me
Though I work all day and sometimes all evening I never had no complaints
Weve been friends though fighting thats why Im writing a letter to lulu-mae
I decided one day to write you a letter from my tent here in my platoon
You send me a poem
Quite hope Ill see you soon
From your mr. lonely
The one and only
A letter to lulu-mae
