The Letter    (1967)

Give me a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm a going home
My baby just 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 just 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 got to get back to my baby once more
Anyway, yeah

Give me a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm a going home
My baby just 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 just wrote me a letter

Well she wrote me a letter, said she couldn't live without me no more
Listen Mister cant you see I got to get back to my baby once more
Anyway, yeah

Give me a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain't got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I'm a going home
My baby just wrote me a letter
My Baby just wrote me a letter
