Mail Myself To You

by: Woody Guthrie


I'm gonna wrap myself in paper
I'm gonna daub myself with glue
Stick some stamps on top of my head
I'm gonna mail myself to you.

I'm gonna tie me up in a red string
I'm gonna tie blue ribbons too
I'm gonna climb up in my mail box
I'm gonna mail myself to you.

When you see me in your mail box
Cut the string and let me out
Wash the glue off of my fingers
Stick some bubble gum in my mouth.

Take me out of my wrapping paper
Wash the stamps off of my head
Pour me full of ice cream sodies
Put me in your nice warm bed.

I'm gonna wrap myself in paper
I'm gonna daub myself with glue
Stick some stamps on top of my head
I'm gonna mail myself to you.
