Lyrics
Give me a ticket for an airplane
Desire for a ticket to board an airplane, urgency in travel
I ain't got no time to take no fast train
Expressing lack of time for a faster mode of transportation
All the lonely days are gone
The previous feeling of loneliness has disappeared
And I'm coming home my baby just wrote me a letter
Heading home because the beloved wrote a letter
I don't care how much I gotta spend
Willingness to spend any amount to find the way back home
I'm a find my way, find my way home again
Determination to find the path back home
All the lonely days are gone
Reiteration of the disappearance of loneliness
I'm coming home, 'cause my baby she wrote me a letter
Returning home due to the letter received
Well she wrote me a letter, said she couldn't live without me no more, oh
The lover expressed inability to live without the narrator
Listen tell me mister, don't you hear me wailing for my baby once more
Pleading for understanding about the longing for the beloved
Anyway yeah
A filler line without a direct narrative impact
I don't care how much I gotta spend
Reiteration of determination to return home regardless of cost
I'm a find my way, find my way home again
Reaffirming the commitment to find the way back home
Yeah, the lonely days are gone, I'm going home
Confirming the end of loneliness and the decision to go home
'Cause my Baby she wrote me a letter, wrote me a letter
Reemphasizing the impact of the letter in prompting the return
Well she wrote me a letter, said she could not live without me no more, oh
Reiteration of the beloved's inability to live without the narrator
Listen tell me mister, don't you hear me wailing for my baby once more
Repetition of the plea for understanding the longing for the beloved
Anyway yeah
A filler line without a direct narrative impact
Give me a ticket for an airplane
Repetition of the desire for a ticket to an airplane
I ain't got no time to take a fast train
Reiteration of the lack of time for a faster mode of transport
Oh, the lonely days are gone,
Reconfirmation of the disappearance of loneliness
And I'm going home, my baby she wrote me a letter, hey yeah
Restating the decision to return due to the letter
My baby, she wrote me a letter
Highlighting the impact of the letter from the beloved
Somebody get me a ticket
An urgent request for a ticket
Somebody get me a ticket, hey
Repetition of the urgent request for a ticket
My baby she wrote me, my baby she did
Reaffirming that the beloved wrote the letter
My baby she wrote me, my baby she did
Reiteration of the letter received from the beloved
She told me she loved me, ohbaby she did
Assertion that the beloved expressed love
She told me she needed me, oh baby she did
Confirmation that the beloved expressed a need for the narrator
Huh huh, hoh hoh, yeah
Exclamatory sounds expressing emotions
Oh
Expression of emotions or excitement
Huh huh, hoh hoh, yeah
Repetition of emotional sounds
