Take a Letter Maria

Take a Letter Maria - The Hit Crew

Last night as I got home

About a half past ten

There was a woman I thought

I knew in the

Arms of another man

I kept my cool

I ain't no fool

Lemme tell you what

I happened then

I packed some clothes

And I walked out

And I

Ain't goin' back again

So take a letter Maria

Addressed to my wife

Sayin' I won't be coming home

Gotta start a new life

So take a letter Maria

Addressed to my wife

Send a copy to my lawyer

Gotta start a new life

You been many things

But most of all

A good secretary to me

And in times like this

I feel

That you'll always be

Close to me

Was I wrong to work nights

To try to fill

A good life

All work and no play

It's just caused me a wife

So take a letter Maria

Addressed to my wife

Sayin' I won't be coming home

Gotta start a new life

So take a letter Maria

Addressed to my wife

Send a copy to my lawyer

Gotta start a new life

When a man loves a woman

It's hard to understand

That she would find

No pleasure

In the arms of another man

I never really noticed

How sweet you are to me

It just all happenes

I'm free tonight

Would you like a dinner with me

So take a letter Maria

Addressed to my wife

Say I won't be coming home

Gotta start a new life

So take a letter Maria
