Give me a one way ticket
Give me a one way fare
Give me a one way ticket
Oh, yeah, get me out of here

Quit my job, sold my car
I took some money from the jar
I got my pay and went on down
I booked the next flight out of town
Don't wanna stay another night
Don't have the time to say goodbye
I'll get on a plane and let it take me away

Give me a one way ticket
Give me a one way fare
Give me a one way ticket
Oh, yeah, get me out of here

The plane took off around the world
When we touched down, met a girl
Took me home without a doubt
Stayed six months then she threw me out
Don't wanna stay another night
Don't have the time to say goodbye
I'll get on a plane and let it take me away

Give me a one way ticket
Give me a one way fare
Give me a one way ticket
Oh, yeah, get me out of here

I know, someday, I'll go back home
When my friends are gone and I'm all alone
Get back my job, get back my car
Save some money up in a jar
Don't wanna stay another night
Don't have the time to say goodbye
I'll get on a plane and let it take me away

Give me a one way ticket
Give me a one way fare
Give me a one way ticket
Oh, yeah, get me out of here

Give me a one way ticket
Give me a one way ticket
Give me a one way ticket
Oh, yeah, get me out of here
