Lyrics
- I know a pair who are making a trip to loveland soon
I’m goin’ to be at the wedding on Sunday afternoon
Each time I ask where they’re planning
To spend their honeymoon
I always hear him crooning
Chorus
Me and Jane in a plane,
Soaring up to the clouds
Me and Jane in a plane
Far away from the crowds
In my two-seater, what could be sweeter?
I’ll have St. Peter step inside and bless the bride
I’ll be keeping my eye
On the man in the moon
He’s a dangerous guy
When he starts to spoon
My kisses I’ll shower, a million an hour
No traffic cop will ever stop
Me and Jane in a plane
- Way up above in a sweet land of love and gleaming stars
She’s never going to ask him for yachts or motor cars
All that she wants is a cute little bungalow in Mars
Where he’ll keep radioing
