Lyrics
William Moore you were a mailman You never missed a day You always got your letter thru Nobody blocked your way Nobody blocked your way, I know Nobody blocked your way You always got your letter through Nobody blocked your way It wasn’t an ordinary message One day you had a message You felt you had to shout It wasn’t an ordinary message Took you beyond your route Took you beyond your route, I know Took you beyond your route It wasn’t an ordinary message Took you beyond your route The message dealt with brotherhood And love and friendship too It wasn’t a regular message So they wouldn't let you through They wouldn't let you through, I know They wouldn't let you through It wasn’t a regular message So they wouldn't let you through They stopped you, William Moore, I know But your message did get through For they can kill a man for sure But not his message too But not his message too, I know But not his message too For they can kill a man for sure But not his message too Your message did get thru, I know Your message did get through For they can kill a man for sure But your message did get through
