The Letter That Never Came - Charlie Poole[00:00:00]
Is there any mail for me[00:00:21]
Was the question that he asked[00:00:23]
Of the postman at the closing of the day[00:00:25]
But he turned away and sighed[00:00:30]
While a tear stood in his eye[00:00:33]
As he drooped his head and slowly walked away[00:00:35]
Was it from a gray haired mother[00:00:40]
Or a sister or a brother[00:00:42]
He waited all these many years in vain[00:00:45]
Oh from early morning light[00:00:49]
He would wait till dark at night[00:00:51]
For the letter but alas it never came[00:00:54]
As he waited all these years[00:01:16]
Joy mingled with his tears[00:01:19]
His poor soul had faded out with the tide[00:01:21]
In his hand he held a note[00:01:25]
And those simple words he wrote[00:01:28]
If the letter comes just place it by my side[00:01:30]
Was it from a gray haired mother[00:01:34]
Or a sister or a brother[00:01:37]
He waited all these many years in vain[00:01:39]
Oh from early morning light[00:01:43]
He would wait till dark at night[00:01:45]
For the letter but alas it never came[00:01:48]
Was it from a gray haired mother[00:02:10]
Or a sister or a brother[00:02:12]
He waited all these many years in vain[00:02:14]
Oh from early morning light[00:02:18]
He would wait till dark at night[00:02:21]
For the letter but alas it never came[00:02:23]
