Sat down to write a letter, Couldn't get you off my mind, Sat down to write a letter, Couldn't get you off my mind. So I wrote a letter to myself but I left the thing unsigned.

I said I was a fool, And that was not untrue, I said I was a fool, And that was not untrue, People tell me I'm a genius, but I've been a fool for you.

Got the sit down, grab a pen and write a letter Blues Take myself and shake myself and make me see the truth, I'm just a fool With the write a letter blues.

Don't know where I'll mail it, Cuz I don't know where I'll be. Don't know where I'll mail it, Cuz I don't know where I'll be, But I sure know where I won't be, With you standin' next to me.

Got the open my eyes, stop listenin' to lies, and write a letter Blues, Got the tell myself, yell at myself, get out of my own way Blues, I've got the Blues, Got the write a letter Blues.

Next time I write a letter, It's gonna start out with Dear John. Next time I write a letter, It's gonna start out with Dear John, Cuz Honey I got a letter to myself Said I been hangin' on too long!

I got the Woke up, toked up, and read my letter Blues, I got the See it now, clear somehow, I'm Walkin' out on you, No more Blues, And no more cryin' over you! No more Blues, Because I got the letter, Blues

Blues, blues blues blues, We're done here
