Lyrics: Joe Young
Music: Fred Ahlert
A Fats Waller song played by the Healy-Treece Band in the early 1980s with Bill Kreutzmann on drums.
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And make believe it came from you
I'm gonna write words, oh, so sweet
They're gonna knock me off my feet
A lot of kisses on the bottom
I'll be glad I've got 'em
I'm gonna smile and say "I hope you're feelin' better"
And close "with love" the way you do
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And make believe it came from you
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And make believe it came from you
I'm gonna write words, oh, so sweet
They're gonna knock me off my feet
A lot of kisses on the bottom
I'll be glad I've got 'em
I'm gonna smile and say "I hope you're feelin' better"
And close "with love" the way you do
I'm gonna sit right down and write myself a letter
And make believe it came from you
