Letter from Home Lyrics

451 Commercial Avenue,
Apartment K, Richmond, California
September 9th 1951

Dear Lester,
I'm sorry I didn't write before,
And because this record wasn't sent,
Which I intended doing before this,
Everything went wrong.

Tonight, we got together and kept the kids up,
And decided to have a little fun making this record.

Well of course, coming up,
We didn't have a lot of trouble, we had a lot of fun.
Momma slept all the way, and I didn't get tired driving.
Was over anxious.
We got in about 12:45,
Got to Richmond, woke the family up.
And there are so many things I could say,
I just can't get them together...
I'll let you hear from somebody else.
