Key's In The Mailbox Lyrics - Ernest Tubb

Oh jealous me and careless you the odds were just too great 

I couldn't take those lonely nights you made me sit and wait 

I thought I'd seen the last of you when you walked out of sight 

Instead I see you in my dreams each night 

So the key's in the mailbox come on in 

I'm sitting here wishing dear I had your love again 

I'll never even ask you where you've been the key's in the mailbox come on in 

I said I'd rather be alone than share your company 

I said don't come around at all if you want more than me 

But sitting here alone I can't deny the flame that burns 

I'd gladly take you back on any terms 

So the key's in the mailbox...
