All my bags are packed I m ready to go
I m standing here out side your door
I hate to wake you up to say good-bye

But the dawn is breaking it s early morning
The taxi s waiting he s blowing his horn

Already I m so lonesome I could die
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you ll wait for me

hold me like you ll never let me go
Cause I m leaving on a jet plane
Don t know when I ll be back again

Oh baby I hate to go
There s so many times I ve let you down
So many times I ve played around
I tell you now they don t mean a thing
Every place I go I ll think of you
Every song I sing sing for you

When I come back I ll bring your wedding ring
So kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you ll wait for me
hold me like you ll never let me go

Cause I m leaving on a jet plane
Don t know when I ll be back again

Oh baby I hate to go
Now the time has come to leave you
One more time let me kiss you

Then close your eyes I ll be on my way

Dream about the days to come
When I won t have to leave alone
About the times I won t have to say
Kiss me and smile for me
Tell me that you ll wait for me
hold me like you ll never let me go

Cause I m leaving on a jet plane
Don t know when I ll be back again
Oh baby I hate to go
I m leaving on a jet plane
Don t know when I ll be back again

Oh baby I hate to go
