Bobby Bare Jr. Lyrics
"Dear Waste Basket"

(Bobby Bare - Curtis Leach)

I've been writin' Mary Lou letters every day
But I just found out lately how she throws them all away
She don't even bother to read the things I say
So I'm gonna write just one last time and I'll begin this way.

I'll say, oh dear wastebasket care of Mary Lou
If you see her say, I need her like I'll always do
She won't read my letters, now I write to you
Dear wastebasket care of Mary Lou.

--- Instrumental ---

No she don't even bother to read the things I say
So I'm gonna write just one last time and I'll begin this way...
