(originally by John Denver)

"Leaving On A Jet Plane"
(originally by John Denver)



Oh, my bag is packed and ready to go
I'm standing here outside your door
And hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the dawn is breaking, it's early morning
Taxi's waiting, 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
I don't know when I'll be back again
Oh babe, I hate to go

There are 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 sing for you
When I come back, I'll wear your wedding ring

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time, let me kiss you
And 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

"Let It Be Me"

"Let It Be Me"


I bless the day I found you
And I wanna stay around you
And so I beg you let it be me
Don't take this heaven from one
If you must cling to someone
Now and forever let it be me
Each time we meet love
You know I find complete love
Without your sweet love
What would life be
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always
Let it be me
And that you'll always
Let it be me

"Little Drummer Boy"


"Come", they told me, pa rum pa pum pum
Our newborn King to see, pa rum pa pum pum
Our finest gifts we bring, pa rum pa rum rum
To lay before the King, pa rum pa pum pum

Rum pa pum pum, rum pa pum pum
So to honor Him, pa rum pa pum pum
When we come

Baby Jesus, pa rum pa pum pum
I am a poor boy, too, pa rum pa pum pum
I have no gift to bring, pa rum pa pum pum
That's fit to give a King, pa rum pa pum pum

Rum pa pum pum, rum pa pum pum
Shall I play for You, pa rum pa rum rum
On my drum?

Mary nodded, pa rum pa pum pum

"Little Girl Blue"

"Little Girl Blue"


Sit there and count your fingers
What can you do old girl, you're through
Sit there and count your fingers
Unlucky little girl blue

Sit there and count the raindrops falling on you
It's time you knew all you can count on
Is the raindrops that fall on little girl blue

No use old girl, you may as well surrender
Your hope is getting slender
Why won't somebody send a tender Blue boy
To cheer a little girl blue

No use old girl, you may as well surrender
Your hope is getting slender
Why won't somebody, somebody send a tender Blue boy
To cheer a little, little girl blue

"Little Jonah (Rock On Your Steel Guitar)"


Ya gotta rock on your steel guitar Little Jonah, ah

Jonah's just a making that guitar moan,
Everybody got to feel it, in their bones

Everytime he makes his guitar moan
Making all the dancers hop and turn
I got the run smoking and ready to burn

Rock the rocky top off the shanty top
If it ain't been nailed, it'll be ready to drop
Rock on your steel guitar Little Jonah,

"Losing You"

"Losing You"


Don't sigh a sigh for me
Don't ever cry for me
This is goodbye for me
I know we're through
I'm Losing you

Love sang it's song for me
Then things went wrong for me
Nights are too long for me
Because I'm losing you

Our love and our devotion
Were deep as any ocean
Then one day like the tide you began to change
And you became a perfect stranger

Someone is holding you
Sharing the lips I knew
I can't believe it's true
That I am losing you

I can't believe it's true
That I am losing you

"Love Ain't The Question"

"Love Ain't The Question"


There's no doubt about it, love ain't the question,
And love ain't the answer to what's coming down
With more than love to hold most folks together,
With lost love and average folks have ever found

We can't kiss and make up, make love and take up
Somewhere where we left off, somewhere we've been
Cause love ain't the question, and love ain't the answer
From the beginning it was testing to end

Though, love ain't the question, and love ain't the answer
For two head strong people, too set in our way
We can't save the past and we can't stay together.
A couple of misfits that love cannot save

We got love for giving and got love for taking,
But there's no forgiving there's no living here.
So love ain't the question and love ain't the answer
From the beginning it was destine to end
Love ain't the question, And love ain't the answer

"Love And Learn"

"Love And Learn"


Love and learn about the birds and bees and the flowers of the mystery
And if you really want to give yourself a blue love and learn about the blues
The rocky road is pretty hard to take
But you don't know nothing till your heart breaks
If you want to know how much you've got to lose love and learn about the blues
Love is a game where your life gets spoken
But the game gets rough when your heart get broken
You'll say at home a sittin' all alone waitin' for the doorbell or the telephone
Then you'll know about what everyone must learn
If you play around with love your will sure to get burned
So when you go to pick a guy be careful who you choose
Or you'll love and learn about the blues

Love is a game where life gets spoken...

"Love Me For A Reason"

"Love Me For A Reason"


Oh, when you hold me,
How you control me.
You bend and you fold me,
Anyway that you please.
It must be easy for you,
The loving things that you do.
Or just a pastime for you,
I could never be
And I never know,
If I should stay or go,
Cause the games that your play,
Keep driving me away

Don't love me for fun,
Let me be the one.
Love me for the reason
And let the reason be love.

Don't love me for fun,
I wanna be the one.
Love me for the reason,
And let the reason be love

Kisses and caresses,
Are only minor tests babe.
Love which it stresses
Between a woman and a man
So if love everlasting,
Isn't what your asking
I guess I'll have to pass then,
And finally take a stand
I can't continue guessing,
Cause its only messing
Up my pride, my mind
So right now its time to tell ya

Don't love me for fun babe,
I gotta be the one babe
Love me for a reason,
And let the reason be love

Don't love me for fun babe,
I want to be the one babe
Love me for a reason
And let the reason be love
