The Great Mail Robbery
Recorded by Rex Allen Jr.
Written by Joseph Paul Allen

G
He met me at the corner with his hand above his hip
Am
Prepared to shoot me down with his toy gun
D7
He said I've got a little score to settle with you sir
G
And it's all about the way you hurt my mom


It seems that you've forgotten there's a letter in your pouch
G7 C
The one to tell her where my daddy's gone
D7
And you'd better hand it over if you don't want to fight
G
Cause today I'm bringing daddy's letter home


I asked him what his name was he said my name is Tim
Am
And I'm momma's little man at six years old
D7
Don't ask me any questions cause I'm here to rob the mail
G
And you'd better do exactly like you're told


Cause last night I heard momma crying and call my daddy's name
G7 C
She kept me up all night until the dawn
D7
I'm really not a bad guy I don't want to shoot you down
G
But today I'm bringing daddy's letter home


Then his lips began to tremble and his hands began to shake
Am
He said I don't believe you understand
D7
Since my daddy went away and left us here alone
G
I've done my best to be a little man


I thought that it might help my mom if I could rob the mail
G7 C
And try to find out where my daddy's gone
D7
And the last thing that I promised her when I strapped on the gun
G
Today I'm bringing daddy's letter home


Ever since that day that Timmy tried to rob the mail
G7 C
I've wondered how a kid could be so strong
D7
The last thing that he promised her when he strapped on his gun
G
Today I'm bringing daddy's letter home
