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
