Elvis Presley - Return to Sender Lyrics

Artist: Elvis Presley

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: Otis Blackwell, Winfield Scott

Return to sender
Return to sender

I gave a letter to the postman
He put it in his sack
Bright in early next morning
He brought my letter back

She wrote upon it
Return to sender, address unknown
No such number, no such zone

We had a quarrel, a lover's spat
I write I'm sorry
But my letter keeps coming back

So when I dropped it in the mailbox
And sent a special D
Bright in early next morning
It came right back to me

She wrote upon it
Return to sender, address unknown
No such person, no such zone

This time I'm gonna take it myself
And put it right in her hand
And if it comes back the very next day
Then I'll understand the writing on it

Return to sender, address unknown
No such number, no such zone

Return to sender
Return to sender
Return to sender
Return to sender
