Yellow Ledbetter


Unsealed, on a porch, a letter sat
Then you said, "I wanna leave it again"
Once I saw her on a beach of weathered sand
And on the sand, I wanna leave it again, yeah

On a weekend, I wanna wish it all away, yeah
And they called and I said that I want what I said
And then I call out again
And the reason oughta leave her calm, I know
I said I know what I wear not the boxer or the bag

Ah yeah, can you see them out on the porch
Yeah, but they don't wave
But I see them 'round the front way, yeah
And I know, and I know
I don't want to stay, make me cry

I see, ooh, I don't know why there's something else
I wanna drum it all away
Oh, I said I don't, I don't know whether
I was the boxer or the bag

Ah yeah, can you see them out on the porch
Yeah, but they don't wave
But I see them 'round the front way, yeah
And I know, and I know
I don't wanna stay at all

I don't wanna stay, yeah
I don't wanna stay
I don't wanna stay, oh
I don't, don't wanna, oh, yeah

Ooh
Oh oh oh
Oh oh yeah
