Cora Lee

Hurry, hurry sundown, won’t you drive the day away
Hurry, hurry sundown, won’t you drive the day away
I found out just this morning, my Cora Lee left me today

Cora Lee, Cora Lee, you brought misery to my head
Cora Lee, Cora Lee, you brought such misery to my head
The Postman brought your letter and I cried on what I read

Every word was like an arrow straight into my heart
Tell me what could ever be driving us apart
Cora Lee, Cora Lee, you brought such misery to my head
The Postman brought your letter and I cried on what I read

My bed is like a desert on a cold dark night
Don’t know what you were thinking, but I know it isn’t right
Cora Lee, Cora Lee, you brought such misery to my head
The Postman brought your letter and I cried on what I read

Mr. Postman, Mr. Postman, better stay away from me
Mr. Postman, Mr. Postman, better stay away from me
Don’t want no more o’ your letters since I lost my Cora Lee
