The Korgis

Lyrics

John Baker/James Warren/Al Steele

She's booked a sleeping car, It's time to make up
For all the joys and tears, To see we've travelled this far
She's got a one-way ticket
The road that led us here, Was never easy
Though doubt has fed the fear, One thing is perfectly clear
We've got a one-way ticket

We knew we could change the world
Like domino's descending
But happy ending's not the
Way of the world
And things will never be the same

She's got a one-way ticket
It's a changing new world
She's got a one-way ticket
Changing a woman from a girl
She's got a one-way ticket
A one-way ticket to you

He's from the Bible Belt, He's packed his Bible
This overwhelming sense of revival and fate
He's got a one-way ticket

In that one leap of faith
Rosa once she'd said it
She never did regret the
Choice she made
'Free at last, free at last'

She's got a one-way ticket - to a changing new world
She's got a one-way ticket - making a woman from a girl
She's got a one-way tick et
A one-way ticket to you

SOLO

He's packed a rifle down, under the lining
He's got a hazy plan, still needs refining for sure
He's got a one-way ticket
We see the entourage, Upon the landing
A sudden shot rings out, Where he was standing there's blood
He's got a one-way ticket

In that one flash of fire
The world stopped turning
The white cross is burning but
Dreams don't die
They bind us back together now

We've got a one-way ticket - no the dream didn't die
We've got a one-way ticket - it put steel in our eyes
We've got a one-way ticket
A one-way ticket to you
We've got a one-way ticket - it'll come one day
We've got a one-way ticket - one way or another
We've got a one-way ticket
A one-way ticket to you
