Ray Stevens - Rita's Letter lyrics
Rita got a letter from her second husband Told her that he might be passing through town next Wednesday Would she like to get together, catch a movie, fool around? (He didn't write that but she read it) Rita couldn't help but think there might be trouble Something in the way he signed his name peculiar Calls himself Nirvana now instead of Beauregard That makes it awful hard Chorus: Because you see He never paid her alimony He never even bothered to thank her for not calling the law That wasn't all He took the car, the dogs, and her brother's guitar The one that was sent back from Rio Back in '73 Rita read that Beauregard had found the answer Somewhere in the teachings of a little round man Who promised love and everlasting joy to those with offerings Of all their worldly things So Rita tore the letter into tiny pieces Just before there came a knock on the door And you guessed it--sporting robe and ponytail He gave the sign for life She threw the kitchen knife Chorus: Because you see He gave away her alimony And no one ever bothered to thank her for not calling the law That wasn't all He gave the car, the dogs, and her brother's guitar The one that was sent back from Rio Back in '73 |
