Standing on the corner

Suitcase is in my hand

Jack is in his corset Jane is in her vest

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

Ridin'a stutz bearcat Jim

You know those were different times

All the poets they studied rules of verse

And those ladies they rolled their eyes

You know you sweet Jane

Oh now baby sweet Jane

Oh yes sweet Jane

Now Jack he is a banker

And Jane baby she is a clerk

And both of them save their money honey

When they come home from work

Sittin' there by the fire

The radio does play the classical music there kid

The march of the wooden soldiers

And you can you can hear Jack say

You know he saying "Sweet Jane

Ooh baby sweet Jane

Ah yes sweet Jane"

Some people like to go out dancing

Whereas other people like us got to work

Gotta watch me now and there's even some evil mothers

They'll tell you life's just dirt

That the pretty women never really faint

That villains always blink their eyes

That children are the only ones who blush

And that life life is just to die but I want to tell you something

Anyone who has ever had a heart

Oh oh wouldn't turn around and break it half

Anyone who has ever played a part

They're not gonna turn around and hate it

You know they're singin' "Sweet Jane

Ah sweet Jane

Ooh sweet Jane"

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane

Sweet Jane

Sweet sweet sweet Jane
