Got Your Letter In My Pocket

Got your letter in my pocket. Your face stayed on my mind.
I heard that you had a baby,
I didn't know the child was mine. I didn't know the child was mine.
There’ve been days when I've gone hungry.
There’ve been nights I've slept out in the pouring rain. There've been times I've spent hiding
Scared somebody'd call my name.
Scared somebody'd call my name.
Your husband came to see me
I lied right in your husband's face. I said that I did not love you.
And I didn't want to take his place. I didn't want to take his place.
If you ever go down to High Top Remember me to Annie Gray. She's got a houseboat on the river And sometimes she lets me stay. Sometimes she lets me stay.
Don't tell no one that you saw me. Don't tell nobody that I came around. I'll be leaving soon in the morning. But I won't say just where I’m bound.
I won't say just where I’m bound.
Got your letter in my pocket. Your face stayed on my mind.
I heard that you had a baby,
I didn't know the child was mine. I didn't know the child was mine.
