Leaving on a JetPlane

Ang kantang ito ay para sa aking ina na nag-alaga sa akin simula pa nung bata ako pero naging suwail akong anak kaya ako napahamak. Isang kapahamakan na pwedeng humantong sa aking kamatayan o maagang paglisan sa piling ng aking ama, kapatid at sa aking ina.

All 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 breaking, Its early morn.

The taxi's waitin, 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 jetplane

I don't know if I'll be back again

Oh Ma! I hate to go.

There so many times I've let you down

so many times I've played around,

I'll tell you now, they don't mean a thing.
