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
