Assuming you are talking about densityplot in lattice, then you are 
missing the point of lattice. You should try:

library(lattice)
set.seed(1)
a <- rnorm(100)
b <- rnorm(50)
c <- rnorm(75)
densityplot(~a + b + c, outer = TRUE, layout = c(3, 1))

Set "outer" to FALSE to overlay the densities (this is the default 
behavior). You should remove the "layout" argument in that case, though.
