At Mail Call Today

At Mail Call Today - Gene Autry

At mail call to-day love your last letter came

I just stood there smiling till they called my name;

As I read it over my skies turned to grey

And tears dimmed my eyes love at mail call today

I can't understand love what happened to you

The day that I sailed love you said you'd be true;

But now it's all over what more can I say

My poor heart was broken at mail call today

I slept in the foxhole amid shot and shell

I'm telling you know it's worse than all hell;

I thought you would wait love while I was away

But my castles tumbled at mail call today

I hope you'll be happy with somebody new

But always remember my heart beats for you;

Good luck and God bless you wherever you stray

The world for me ended at mail call today
