Hey, here's a letter for you
Hey, here's a letter for you
Now what did you do to get a letter for you
It starts with "Dear John" and ends "we are through"
She's written you off in a letter for you, hey hey

Hey, you get a kiss on your cheek
Hey, you get a kiss on your cheek
You once made her weak, now it's a kiss on your cheek
As you walk through that door, so mild and meek
As you greet the sunset, you get a kiss on your cheek, yeah

Hey, you feel a pat on your back
Hey, you feel a pat on your back
And after all that, here's a pat on your back
As you pack up your bags and your calico cat
As you go on your way, you feel a pat on your back, hey hey

Hey, here's a wave and a nod
Hey, here's a wave and a nod
Now isn't that odd? You get a wave and a nod
>From the love of your life, you once swore to God
As you pass on the street, you get a wave and a nod, yeah

Hey, I bought a Panama hat
Hey, I bought a Panama hat
I got no time to chat in my Panama hat
You see I'm off to meet someone down at Tortilla Flats
And I'll see you around in my Panama hat someday.

Beware my love, take care my love
Don't scare my love away
Don't dare my love, take care my love
Don't scare my love away
Beware my love, take care my love
Don't scare my love away
Yeah
