The Letter

(album: Borrowed Tales - 1995)

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
I ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone I'm a going home
My baby jus' wrote me a letter.

I don't care how much money I gotta spend
I got to get back to my baby again
Lonely days are gone I'm a going home
My baby jus' wrote me a letter.

Well, she wrote me a letter
Said she couldn't live without me no more
Listen mister can't you see
I gotta get back to my baby once more
Any way, yeah,

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
I ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone I'm a going home
My baby jus' wrote me a letter.

Lonely days are gone I'm a going home
My baby jus' wrote me a letter.

My baby jus' wrote me a letter...
