Leaving On A Jet Plane Lyrics - Jean Shepard

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
