Sweet Jane

Standin' on the corner, suitcase in my hand

Jack is in his corset, Jane is in her vest

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

Huh, ridin' in a Stutz Bearcat, Jim

You know, those were different times

Oh, all the poets they studied rules of verse

And those ladies, they rolled their eyes

Sweet Jane, oh

Sweet Jane, oh

Sweet Jane

I tell you something to Jack, he is a banker

And Jane, she is a clerk

And both of them save their monies

Huh, when they come home from work

Ooh, sittin' down by the fire

Oh, the radio does play

The classical music, there Jim

The "March of the Wooden Soldiers"

All you protest kids, you can hear Jack say

Get Ready

Sweet Jane, oh, come on babe-a

Sweet Jane, oh

Sweet Jane

Some people, they like to go out dancin'

And other peoples, they have to work

Just watch me now

And there's even some evil mothers

Well, they're gonna tell you that

Everything is just dirt

You know that women never really faint

And that villains always blink their eyes

Whoo, and that you know, children are the only ones who blush

And that, life is just to die

But anyone who ever had a heart

Oh, they wouldn't turn around and break it

And anyone who's ever played a part

Oh, they wouldn't turn around and hate it

Sweet Jane, oh, whoa-huh

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane

Ooh, hey, hey

Wine and roses

Seem to whisper to her

When he smiles

Ooh, heavenly wine and roses

Seem to whisper to her

Hey baby, she smiles

La, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la

La, la, la, la, la, la

Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane
