Did you get the letter
That I sent you
Trying to remember what the letter said
After all the heartache you put me through
I need you like a hole in the head
Then I saw the little light was blinking
You left a message like an angel singing
Baby come back
Come back to me
I think I'm going crazy
Baby can't you see
That I love you
Oh, baby come back to me
Now how am I gonna keep that letter from you
How am I gonna take back all the things I said
Was I thinking when I cursed your mother
Signed the letter "wish you were dead"
Baby, tell me how I got so stupid
I've been shooting arrows back at Cupid
Staking out
Your postman's route
Better take a bribe
Before I take him out
Take the letter back
Oh my darling
Baby come back
I miss you so
How could I have been so stupid just to let you go
Now my darling
I'm so sorry, I've been such a fool
And I want you back
Baby come backDirty people take what's mine
I can leave them all behind
They can never cross that line
When I get to the border
Sawbones standing at the door
Waiting 'till I hit the floor
He won't find me anymore
When I get to the border
Monday morning, monday morning
Closing in on me
I'm packing up and I'm running away
To where nobody picks on me
If you see a box of pine
With a name that looks like mine.
Just say I drowned in a barrel of wine.
When I got to the border
When I got to the border
A one way ticket's in my hand
Heading for the chosen land
My troubles will all turn to sand
When I get to the border
Salty girl with yellow hair
Waiting in that rocking chair
And if I'm weary I won't care
When I get to the border
Monday morning, monday morning
Closing in on me
I'm packing up and I'm running away
To where nobody picks on me
The dusty road will smell so sweet
Paved with gold beneath my feet
And I'll be dancing down the street
When I get to the border
When I get to the border
