"Sorry, I don't recall that one..."

I am aghast!!!!!! You don't recall "The Letter" by The Box Tops????!!! It's played on the oldies station a hunnert times a day. It was only the best selling record of the year that year.

Young 'uns, Oy Vey!!

"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...
