Songtekst
{transcribed by Adri Verhoef, 13-2-2013}
Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm goin' home
My baby wrote me a letter
I don't care how much I gotta spend
Gotta get back to my baby again
Lonely days are gone, I'm goin' home
My baby, he wrote me a letter
Well, he wrote me a letter
Said he couldn't live without me no more
Listen, mister, can't you see
I gotta get back to my baby once more
[break]
Wrote me a letter
Said he couldn't live without me no more
Listen, mister, can't you see
I gotta get back to my baby once more
Now he wrote me a letter
Said he couldn't live without me no more
Listen, mister, can't you see
I gotta get back to my baby once more
[break]
Give me a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm goin' home
My baby, he wrote me a letter
A letter
