Send Me a Postcard

I heard the news babe
you're heading for the top
won't you send me a postcard
when you're getting up
cause I wonder what the view's like
on top of the stairs
send me some pictures
when you're getting there

they say that it's lonely
they say that it's cold
they say you're always hungry there
well that's what I been told
you'll find the horn of plenty
but you'll be wanting more
send me a postcard
mail it to my door

I saw you at the airport
just the other night
did you see me crying
when you got on that flight
will you think about me
when you're up in the clouds
send me a postcard
so I know what you're all about

now the money comes rolling in
you're gonna be the best
well I got news for you honey
I'm not that much impressed
I'll be waiting at the bottom
honey you know where
send me a postcard
when you're getting up there

and I hope you'll remember
the good times that we had
that I cooked you dinner
when you were sick in bed
yes I hope you'll remember
as you move along
to send me a postcard girl
what's going on

and I hope that you're happy
I hope that you're strong
some of the creeps you been seen with
I hope they won't do you wrong
you should know that I love you
that you're on my mind
send me a postcard
when you got the time
when you got the time
