My Baby Wrote me On Twitter

The Takeaway asked for songs that'd be different if there weren't phones, and we were in this age. Here's a joking lyric I did to the tune of the old Clearance Clearwater song "My Baby Wrote me a Letter."

Give me a ticket for an airplane
Ain’t got time for a fast train
Lonely days are gone
I’m a goin home
My baby wrote on Twitter

She wrote me on Twitter and said she couldn’t live w/out me no more
But in 140 letters I didn’t learn very much more
Anyway

Email and Texts tell me what she do
Facebook and Foursquare give me more of her news
Lonely days are gone
I’m a goin home
My baby wrote on Twitter

A little bit of levity on a busy and otherwise serious day.
