The Letter

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain’t got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I’m-a goin’ home
Oh, 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
Oh, my baby, just-a 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-a more
Anyway, yeah!

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain’t got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I’m-a goin’ home
Oh, my baby, just-a 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-a more
Anyway, yeah!

Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain’t got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I’m-a goin’ home
Oh, my baby, just-a wrote me a letter
Oh, go, my baby, just-a wrote me a letter

Cry Like A Baby

When I think about the good love you gave me
I cry like a baby
Living without you is driving me crazy
I cry like a baby
Well, I know now that you’re not a play thing
Not a toy, or a puppet on a string

As I look back on a love so sweet now
I cry like a baby
Every road is a lonely street
I cry like a baby
I know now that you’re not a play thing
Not a toy, or a puppet on a string

Today we passed on a street
And you just walked on by
My heart just fell to my feet
And once again I began to cry

When I think about the good love you gave me
I cry like a baby
Living without you is driving me crazy
I cry like a baby

I know now that you’re not a play thing
I cry like a baby
As I look back on a love so sweet now
I cry like a baby
Every road is a lonely street
I cry like a baby
My heart just fell to my feet, you know
I cried like a baby
You left the water running now
I cried like a baby

Buckner Garcia

PacMan Fever

I have a pocketfull of quarters
And I’m headed to the arcade

I don’t have alot of money
But I’m bringing everything I made

I have a calis on my finger
And my shoulder’s hurtin’, too

I’m gonna eat ’em all up
Just as soon as they turn blue

‘Cause I got Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
It’s drivin’ me crazy (Drivin’ me crazy)
I got Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
I’m goin’ outta my mind (Goin’ outta my mind)
I got Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
I’m goin’ outta my mind (Goin’ outta my mind)

[musical interlude – 4 measures]

I’ve got all the patterns down
Up to the ninth key

I’ve got Speedy on my tail
And I know it’s either him or me

So I’m heading out the back
Going in and out the side

Gonna eat all the cherries up
And take ’em all for a ride

I got Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
It’s drivin’ me crazy (Drivin’ me crazy)
I got Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
I’m goin’ outta my mind (Goin’ outta my mind)
I got Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
I’m goin’ outta my mind (Goin’ outta my mind)

[musical interlude – 2 measures]

I’m gonna faint to the left
Then move to the right
‘Cause Pokey’s too slow
And Blinky’s outta sight

[instrumental break – 16 measures]

Now I’ve got them on the run
And I’m lookin’ for the high score.

So it’s once around the block
Then I stop back out the side door.
Uhh!!
I’m really cookin’ now
Eatin’ everything in sight

All my money is gone
So I’ll be back tommorrow night

‘Cause I got Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
It’s drivin’ me crazy (Drivin’ me crazy)
I got Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
I’m goin’ outta my mind (Goin’ outta my mind)

I got Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
Drivin’ me
Drivin’ me
Drivin’ me crazy
Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
I’m goin’ outta my mind (Goin’ outta my mind)
Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
It’s drivin’ me crazy (Drivin’ me crazy)
I got Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
I’m goin’ outta my mind (Goin’ outta my mind)
P-P-P-P-Pac Man Fever (Pac Man Fever)
