Standing on the corner, suitcase in my hand Jackie's in the schoolyard, Jane is in her vest I'm in a rock 'n' roll band Riding a Stutz Bearcat You know, those were different times All the poets, they studied rules of verse And the ladies, they just rolled their eyes Now Jackie, he's a banker And Jane, she is a clerk And both of them save up their monies When they get home from work Sitting right down by the fire The radio it does play Cla**ical music, the March of the Wooden Soldiers You should hear Jack say Sweet Jane Woah, sweet Jane Woah, sweet Jane Some people, they go out dancing And some people, they have to work And there's even some evil mothers Gonna tell you that everything is just dirt They say women never really faint And that villains always blink their eyes Children are the only ones who blush
And that life is just to die Well, anyone who ever had a heart Wouldn't turn around and break it Well, anyone who ever played a part They wouldn't turn around and hate it I say, sweet Jane Woah, sweet Jane Woah, sweet Jane Woah, sweet, sweet Jane Heavenly wine and roses Seem to whisper to me when you smile Sha lala lala la, sha lala lala la Sha lala lala la, sha lala lala la Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Sweet Jane And anyone who ever had a heart Wouldn't turn around and break it And anyone who ever played a part They wouldn't turn around and hate it Does anyone have a heart? Has anyone ever had a heart? Has anyone ever had a heart? Has anyone ever had a heart? Sweet Jane Sweet Jane Sweet Jane ...
