The Letter

The Box Tops

Give me a ticket for an aeroplane


I ain't got time to take a fast train


Lonely days are gone


I'm going home, because my baby just wrote me a letter





I don't care how much money I've got to spend


I've got to get back to my baby again


Lonely days are gone


I'm going home; my baby just wrote me a letter





(x2):


Well she wrote me a letter, said she couldn't live without me no more


Listen mister, can't you see I've got to get back to my baby once more?


Anyway, yeah, give me a ticket for an aeroplane


I ain't got time to take a fast train


Lonely days are gone


I'm going home, because my baby just wrote me a letter





My baby just wrote me a letter
