Circle left
Mr. Postman, look and see
If there's a letter in your bag for me
Left allemande, turn the partner by the right
Left allemande gonna weave tonight
There must be some word today, from my boyfriend so far away
Please Mr. Postman, look and see, if there's a letter, a letter for me

Heads (sides) promenade, take it half you go
Down the middle, square thru and go four
Go all the way touch a 1/4, my friend
Scoot back, boy run again
Pass the ocean, all 8 circulate
Swing the corner, promenade your date
*Please Mr. Postman, look and see, if there's a letter, a letter for me

Sides face, grand square
(no lyric, guitar solo, musical interlude)
Allemande left and weave the ring
I've been standing here waitin' Mr. Postman, so-o-o patiently
For just a card, or just a letter, saying he's returning home to me

Sides face, grand square
So many days you passed me by, see the tears standing in my eye
You didn't stop to make me feel better, by leavin' me
Allemande left and weave the ring
You've gotta wait a minute, wait a minute
Wait a minute, wait a minute (ooo-ooo)
Wait a minute, wait a minute
Come on deliver the letter, the sooner the better
