Lou Reed - Sweet Jane Lyrics
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 eyesSweet Jane.....Sweet Jane.....Sweet JaneNow, 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 soldiersand you can hear Jack saySweet Jane.....Sweet Jane.....Sweet Jane....Some people like to go out dancingAnd other people, (like us) they gotta workAnd there's always some evil mothersthey'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 heartwouldn'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
