[Verse 1]
Sitting by the window, feeling sad and blue
All because I haven't heard from you
And then my mama said "Look! Look!
Here comes the postman 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 twisted 'round his back
'Cause he's a (Twistin' postman)"
[Verse 2]
Now he's a-twistin' to the left, twistin' to the right
Twistin' all round and round
If he didn't bring the 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)
[Bridge]
Oh yeah, whoa, whoa, whoa
Hey he's twistin' down the street
Mail sack swingin' 'round his back
Cause he's a
(Twistin' postman)
[Verse 3]
Twistin' to the left, twistin' to the right, oh yeah
A household player, he's doin' time (Twistin' postman)
He's a twistin' postman look at him go
Twistin' postman
He's got the mail sack swingin' 'round his back
Cause he's a
(Twistin' postman)
[Verse 4]
Twistin' to the left, twistin' to the right
Twistin' all round and round
If he didn't bring the 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)
[Outro]
"Look! Look! Here comes the mailman twistin' down the avenue
He's got a letter in his hand and I know it has to be for you"
