Jean Shepard - Leaving On A Jet Plane Lyrics

My bags are packed I'm ready to go I'm standing here outside your door

I hate to wake you up to say goodbye

But the dawn is breakin' and it's early morn the taxi's waitin' he's blowing his horn

Already I'm so lonesome I could cry

So kiss me and smile for me tell me that you'll wait for me

Hold me like you'll never let me go

I'm leaving on a jet plane don't know when I'll be back again oh babe I hate to go



There's so many times you let me down so many times you've played around

I tell you now that they don't mean a thing

Every place I'll go I'll think of you every song I'll sing I'll sing for you

When I come back I'll wear your wedding ring

So kiss me and smile for me...



Now the time has come to leave you one more time let me kiss you

Then close your eyes and I'll be on my way

Dream about the days to come when I won't have to leave alone

About the time I won't have to say

Kiss me and smile for me...

Hate to go
