Money, I ain’t got none |
Problems, I sure got some |
But I got two tickets to paradise |
Dontcha wanna go |
Sadness all round |
Gladness just can’t be found |
But I got two tickets to paradise |
Dontcha wanna go with me? |
Everything I did was wrong, the day was dark as night |
But I found a girl whose love was strong, now everything’s all right |
(All right!, all right!) |
I got to hurry, my bag is packed |
I’m leavin' and I ain’t comin' back |
'cause I got two tickets to paradise |
Oh, now dontcha wanna go with me? |
The first stop, we’ll take a walk |
Second stop, we’ll have a talk |
The third stop |
Ooh-ee!, you better go with me |
Everything I did was wrong, my days were dark as night |
But I found a girl whose love was strong, now everything’s all right |
(All right!, all right!) |
I got to hurry, my bag is packed |
I’m leavin' and I ain’t comin' back |
'cause I got me two tickets to paradise |
Now don’t you want to go with me? |
The first stop, we’ll take a walk |
Second stop, we’ll have a talk |
The third stop |
Ooh-ee!, dontcha wanna go with me? |
Now don’t you want to go with me? |
Be my guest, come on and go with me |
