HOMEFRONT
We moved from Northen California to Denmark in October of 1999. It was very scary, but on the plane trip I had time to write this song. It's called "Leaving on a Jet Plane," based on the John Denver hit:

All my bowls are packed I'm ready to go.
I'm standing here outside my door.
I'm tryin' to catch a mouse as a last goodbye
But the dawn is breaking it's early morn.
Litter pan's empty and packed up to go
Already I'm dreading that long flight
  
So pet me and feed me mo'.
Tell me that you'll miss me so
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
           
Cuz I'm leavin on a jet plane.
Don't know when I'll be back again.
Oh, drats I hate to go.

There's so many things a cat's gotta do
So many lives to work on through
Movin to Denmark is just one of those things 
Every place I go I'll think of you.
Every purr I purr I'll purr for you.
When I get there I hope it will be spring  

So pet me and feed me mo'.
Tell me that you'll miss me so.
Hold me like you'll never let me go.
  
Cuz I'm leavin on a jet plane.
Don't know when I'll be back again.
Oh, drats, I hate to go.

Now the time come to leave you.
One more time let me lick you.
Then close your eyes I'll be on my way.
Dream about the days gone by.
When I just cuddled by your side
About the times we had lots of play
  
So pet me and feed me mo'.
Tell me that you'll miss me so.
Hold me like you'll never let me go.

Cuz I'm leavin on a jet plane.
Don't know when I'll be back again.
Oh, drats, I hate to go.
     
I'm leavin on a jet plane.
Don't know when I'll be back again.
Oh, drats,  I hate to go.
