Lou Reed - Sweet Jane Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Standin' on a corner,
  • suitcase in my hand.
  • Jack's in his car, says to Jane, who's in her vest,
  • Me, babe, I'm in a rock n' roll band.
  • Ridin' in a Stutz Bearcat, Jim,
  • those were different times.
  • And the poets studied rows of verse,
  • and all the ladies rolled their eyes
  • Sweet Jane.....Sweet Jane.....Sweet Jane
  • Now, Jack, he is a banker,
  • and Jane, she is a clerk.
  • And the both of them are saving up their money...
  • then they come home from work.
  • Sittin' by the fire...
  • radio just played a little classical music for you kids,
  • the march of the wooden soldiers
  • and you can hear Jack say
  • Sweet Jane.....Sweet Jane.....Sweet Jane....
  • Some people like to go out dancing
  • And other people, (like us) they gotta work
  • And there's always some evil mothers
  • they'll tell you life is full of dirt.
  • And the women never really faint,
  • and the villans always blink their eyes.
  • And the children are the only ones who blush.
  • 'Cause life is just to die.
  • But, anyone who has a heart
  • wouldn't want to turn around and break it...
  • and anyone who ever played the part..
  • he wouldn't want to turn around and fake it...
  • Sweet Jane....etc...and out
