Twistin' Postman (Live At Apollo Theater/1962)

Sitting by the window feeling sad and blue

All because I haven't heard from you

And then my momma said look

Look

Here comes the postman

A twistin down the avenue

He's got a letter in his hand and I know it has to be for you

He's got the mail sack a twistin round his back

Cause he's a twistin postman

A he's a twistin to the left

Twistin to the right

Twistin all around and round

If he didn't bring a letter

To make me feel better

I was gonna put you down

I'm so glad he came in time

To ease this achin heart of mine

Cause he's a twistin postman

He's got the mail sack a twistin round his back

Cause he's a twistin postman

A he's a twistin to the left

Twistin to the right

Twistin all around and round

If he didn't bring a letter

To make me feel better

I was gonna put you down

I'm so glad he came in time

To ease this achin heart of mine

Cause he's a twistin postman

Look

Look here comes the mailman

A twistin down the avenue

Sitting by the window feeling sad and blue

All because I haven't heard from you
