I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon but to settle down and write you a line I've been meaning to phone you but from Minnesota hell it's been a very long time You wear it well A little old fashioned but that's all right
Well I suppose you're thinking I bet he's sinking or he wouldn't get in touch with me Oh I ain't begging or losing my head I sure do want you to know that you wear it well There ain't a lady in the land so fine

Anyway, my coffee's cold and I'm getting told that I gotta get back to work So when the sun goes low and you're home all alone think of me and try not to laugh and I wear it well I don't object if you call collect 'cos I ain't forgetting that you were once mine but I blew it without even tryin' Now I'm eatin' my heart out tryin' to get back to you
After all the years I hope it's the same address Since you've been gone it's hard to carry onTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
