Got a letter from my kid today
They let me read a line or two
I lost my teddy bear, I can't remember where
Daddy is he there with you?

In the letter he goes on to say
I'm so excited daddy dear
I found a little pup, I washed and brushed him up
Tell me can I keep him here?

Daddy here's my puupy's picture
Don't you think he looks like me
We could be so happy
Only, without you it's lonely.

That's the letter from my kid today
Gee it makes me kinda blue
I know exactly how the kid is feeling now
'Cause I get mighty lonely too.
