Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
My baby wrote me a letter
I don't care how much money I gotta spend
Got to get back to my baby
Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home
My baby wrote me a letter
Well, she wrote me a letter
Said she couldn't live without me no mo'
Listen mister can't you see I got to get back
To my baby once a-mo'--anyway... yeah
