Said to the man at the railroad station

"I want a ticket just for one "

He said "Well if you insist

Where you wanna go Miss "

Oh destination anywhere

East or west I don't care

You see my baby don't love me no more

This old world ain't got no back door

He looked at me with a funny face and said

"Are you sure you wanna go just anyplace "

I said "If you ever loved someone

The way I loved that man

Surely Mr ticket agent you should understand "

Destination anywhere

East or west I don't care

You see my baby don't want me no more

This old world ain't got no back door

'Cause every day it would swing both ways

And we'd go on back to happy yesterdays

When I loved him tenderly

And all he needed was me

As I stepped through the window of the train

I thought I heard my baby call my name

But it was just the conductor saying

"Which stop would you prefer "

Oh destination anywhere

East or west I don't care

You see my baby don't love me no more

This old world ain't got no back door

Destination anywhere

East or west I don't care

Destination anywhere

East or west I don't care

Destination anywhere

East or west I don't care

Destination anywhere

East or west I don't care

Destination anywhere

East or west I don't care

Destination anywhere

East or west I don't care
