Sweet Jane Lyrics
[00:17.89] Standin' on a corner
[00:22.47] Suitcase in my hand
[00:25.95] Jack's in his car, says to Jane, who's in her vest
[00:30.99] And me, I'm in a rock 'n' roll band
[00:36.53] Ridin' in a Stutz Bearcat, Jim
[00:40.17] You know those were different times
[00:45.36] All, all the poets studied rows of verse
[00:48.05] And those ladies, they rolled their eyes
[00:54.73] Sweet Jane, oh
[00:59.55] Sweet Jane, oh, oh
[01:03.94] Sweet Jane
[01:08.10] I'll tell you somethin' of Jack, he is a banker
[01:11.96] And Jane, she is a clerk
[01:17.08] And the both of them save their moneys
[01:21.42] And when, when they come home from work
[01:26.08] Ooh, sittin' by the fire, ooh
[01:31.05] The radio just played a little classical music that jam
[01:36.01] The march of the wooden soldiers
[01:37.93] All you protest kids, you can hear Jack say
[01:42.71] Get ready ya
[01:45.27] Sweet Jane, ah, come on baby now
[01:49.59] Sweet Jane
[01:54.09] Sweet Jane
[01:58.89] Some people like to go out dancing
[02:02.82] And other people, they have to work, just watch me now
[02:07.23] And there's always some evil mothers
[02:11.49] Well they gonna tell you that everything is just of dirt
[02:16.05] You know that women never really faint
[02:19.64] And that villeins always blink their eyes, ooh
[02:25.50] And that you know children are the only ones who blush
[02:29.59] And that life is just to die
[02:34.62] But anyone with or had a heart, oh
[02:39.28] They wouldn't turn around and break it
[02:43.45] And anyone who ever played the part, oh
[02:48.22] They wouldn't turn around and hate it
[02:53.41] Sweet Jane, oh-whoa
[02:57.52] Sweet Jane
[03:02.09] Sweet Jane
[03:06.77] Heavenly wine and roses
[03:10.65] Seem to whisper to her when he smiles
