Silver Lining, Day 898

Donald Trump's favorite John Denver song:

My musket's packed
I'm ready to go
I'm standin' here outside your door
I hate to wake you up to say goodbye
But the colonies are callin'
It's early morn
The carriage is waitin'
He's blowin' 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 leavin' on a jet plane
Off to fight George Washington
Oh babe, I hate to go

There's so many times they’ve let us down
Wasted tea and snubbed the Crown
I tell you now, they don't mean a thing
Ev'ry place I go, I'll think of you
Ev'ry song I sing, I'll 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 leavin' on a jet plane
Off to fight in my red coat again
Oh babe, 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 off to the colonies
Dream about the days to come
When they will be loyal to the throne
About the times, I won't have to say

Oh, 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 leavin' on a jet plane
Off to fight Lafayette and Hamilton
Oh babe, I hate to go

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