Sweet Jane

[Verse 1]

Standing on the corner

Suitcase in my hand

Jack is in his corset and Jane is in her vest

And me, I'm in a rock and roll band

[Verse 2]

Riding in a Stutz Bearcat, Jim

Those were different times

And the poets studied rules of verse

And all the ladies rolled their eyes

[Chorus]

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane

[Verse 3]

Now Jack he is a banker

And Jane she is a clerk

And they're both saving up all their money

And when they come home from work

[Verse 4]

Sitting by the fire

Radios a-play a little classical music for you kids

To The March of the Wooden Soldiers

And you can hear Jack say

[Chorus]

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane

[Verse 5]

Some people like to go out dancing

Other people, they got to work

And there's always some evil mothers

I tell you life is just full of dirt

[Verse 6]

And the women never really faint

And the villains always blink their eyes

And children are the only ones who blush

And that life is just to die

[Verse 7]

But anyone who had a heart

He wouldn't want to turn around and break it

And anyone who ever played a part

He wouldn't want to turn around and hate it

[Outro]

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane (Sweet Jane)

Sweet Jane (Sweet Jane)

Sweet Jane (Sweet Jane)

Sweet Jane (Sweet Jane)

Sweet Jane (Sweet Jane)

Sweet Jane

Oh my Sweet Jane
