RED LETTER BLUES song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

I got a red letter yesterday
and been crying all night long
I got a red letter yesterday
been crying all the whole night long
I thought I had got over her
but I guesses I was wrong

she was my own first true love
but that was o so long ago
she was the first girl that I loved
but that was such a long time ago
thought I'd put her outta mind
but the answer babe was no

the letter said she's gone
and she's with the angels now
the letter said that she was gone
and she sings with the angels now
but if I had to make a guess
she's in the other place somehow

I'm so glad that I am free
and her fate aint up to me
so glad so glad so glad
that her fate aint up to me
cause I can't say nothing else
what will be is what will be

you know a woman got her ways
that a man can't understand
yes a woman got her ways
a man will never understand
and she might walk away one day
while you stand there with heart in hand

I got a letter yesterday
and I threw it in the fire
got a red letter yesterday
and I threw it in the fire
I refuse to be a victim
in a prison of desire
