The Letter - The Box Tops (1967)

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 a-mo'--anyway...

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

To my baby once a-mo'--anyway yeah

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
