Nat King Cole:I'm Gonna Sit Right Down (And Write Myself A Letter)

(F. Ahlert, J. Young)


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 of my feet,
A lot of kisses on the bottom,
I'll be glad I got 'em.


I'm gonna smile and say,
"I hope you're feeling better,"
And close with love, the way that 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 that it came from you.
I'm gonna write words oh, so sweet, yeah!


Lotta kisses on the bottom,
I'll be glad I got 'em.
I'm gonna smile and say,
"I hope you're feeling better,"
And close with love, the way that 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,
Make believe that it came from you!
