No Mail Today
The words, "no mail," have a dreadful sound,
And yet it's so the world around;
Wherever I go, wherever I stay
They'll say with a smile, "no mail today."
Now friends will always say they'll write,
And still I'm lonely day and night;
And though I have friends wherever I've been
There's seldom a scribble or scratch of pen.
I always aim to do my part
With words to gladden someone's heart;
But wherever I go, wherever I stay
They'll say with a smile, "no mail today."
