The Letter

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane,

Ain't got time to take a fast train.

Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home,

'Cause my baby just a-wrote me a letter.

I don't care how much money I gotta spend,

Got to get back to my baby again

Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home,

'Cause my baby just a-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 more, anyway...

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane,

Ain't got time to take a fast train.

Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home,

'Cause my baby just a-wrote me a letter.

Well, she wrote me a letter

Listen mister can't you see I got to get back

To my baby once more, anyway...

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane,

Ain't got time to take a fast train.

Lonely days are gone, I'm a-goin' home,

'Cause my baby just a-wrote me a letter.

Because my baby just a-wrote me a letter.
