Lyrics
(Intro, spoken:) [Oh my god, you won't believe what came in the mail No Yeah Who sent it? No, I don't even have to say it Don't say it Yeah She's gonna freak out Wait, he said what? Yeah No It's fine You got a letter When did it come?] I got your postcard from St. Louis It was nice of you to send I love the way you signed it 'Dear old friend' (Dear old friend) Hope you're thinkin' of me fondly When you make it to L.A Remember how we joked about Us living there someday? (Ugh, he's the worst) Don't you go and write me a letter From Marietta, Georgia, where you don't sleep alone I made peace with your travels My composure unravels Starin' at that postal code I'm here and you're gone And I believe that's for the better And I'm content to be your pawn With each sweet, halfhearted gesture But I don't need to know the weather Down in Marietta Dear, I don't need to know the weather Down in Marietta I expect a call from Eugene With a case about the clouds And an echo 'cross the country When you shout my name out loud And my, my, when you’re in Telluride I’ll be waitin’ on a snowy card That mountain air, it can't keep ya long Well, you got my sincerest regards Don't you go and write me a letter From Marietta, Georgia, where you don't sleep alone I made peace with your travels My composure unravels Starin' at that postal code I'm here and you're gone And I believe that's for the better And I'm content to be your pawn With each sweet, halfhearted gesture But I don't need to know The weather down in Marietta Dear, I don't need to know the weather Down in Marietta And now I’m thinkin’ you don’t like me And that’s fine, I’m happy here (I'm so happy here) I prefer New England seasons And my vision's getting clear (I got gla**es) Forget me and my troubles Don’t pretend you miss this face This is the last time I’ll be writing Please don’t talk about that place Don't you go and write me a letter From Marietta, Georgia, where you don't sleep alone I made peace with your travels My composure unravels Starin' at that postal code I'm here and you're gone And I believe that's for the better And I'm content to be your pawn With each sweet, empty-hearted gesture And I don't care to know The weather down in Marietta Dear, I don't care to know the weather Down in Mar– Down in Marietta (Whoo-oo-hoo) (A-ow)
