Intro (3x) verse 1 Sometimes I wag my finger Sometimes I shake my fist I’m writing you a letter I’m sending you a kiss I’m sending you some money To buy a pair of shoes ’Cause you’ve grown out of the last ones I know I’m losing you Instrumental verse 2 I taught you how to save it And I taught you how to spend But I never taught you anything How to keep or make a friend I’m sending you some money To buy a pair of socks But you never wore ‘em anyhow And a little money talks Instrumental verse 3 Winter’s coming on now I turn the clocks back an hour I changed the double-windows And cut the last of summer’s flowers I’m wishing you were here To help me with these chores Or just to build a fire And we can sit and watch it as it roars Instrumental Outro I’m sending you a letter I’m sending you a kiss
