I decided one day to write you a letter and tell you how much i care
and about how it feels when you walk beside me and the joy of being a pair
i remember the day we got together i remember it like today
i was struck by lightning that's why i'm writing a letter to lulu-mae
You were standing on the porch as i drove up the driveway as lovely as one can be
you would make any man so greatful of living and you choose a man like me
though i work all day and sometimes all evening i never had no complaints
we've been friends though fighting that's why i'm writing a letter to lulu-mae
I decided one day to write you a letter from my tent here in my platoon
you send me a poem
quite hope i'll see you soon
from your mr. lonely
the one and only
a letter to lulu-mae
