Ain't got time to take a fast train
Am F7
Lonely days are gone, I'm a goin' home
E E7 Am
My baby just wrote me a letter

I don't care how much money I got to spend
I got to get back to my baby, again
Lonely days are gone, I'm a goin' home
My baby just wrote me a letter

F C G
Said, she couldn't live without me no more
C G
Listen mister, can't you see 
F C G E7
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 goin' 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 goin' home
My baby just wrote me a letter
E E7 Am
My baby just wrote me a letter
