Sweet Jane (Live 1972 FM Broadcast)

This is the one called "Sweet Jane"
Two, three, four

Standing on the corner, suitcase in my hand
Jack is in his corset, Jane is in her vest
And me, I'm in a rock and roll band, watch it now

Ridin' in a Ridin' a Stutz Bearcat, Jim
You know, those were different times
Those poets, they studied rules of verse
And those ladies, they rolled their eyes

Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane

You know jack, he is a banker
And Jane, she is a clerk
And both of them save their monies
And when they come home from work

They be sitting near by the fire
The radio does play a little classical music, dear kids
"March of the Wooden Soldiers"
And you can hear Jack say

Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane

Some people, they like to go out dancing
And then there's other people like me, we gotta work
And there's even some evil mothers
They're gonna tell you that live is just made out of dirt

That women never really thinks
That villains always blink their eyes
The children are the only ones who blush
And that life is just to die

But anyone who ever had a heart
Oh, they wouldn't turn around and break it
And anyone who's just played a part
Oh, they wouldn't turn around and hate it

Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane

Heavenly wine and roses seem to whisper to him
When she smiles
Heavenly wine and roses seem to whisper to him
When she smiles

Alright

Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane
Sweet Jane, Sweet Jane

Thank you
