Painted Desert Serenade

He tells her, I wanna paint you naked on a big brass bed
With bright orange poppies all around your head
And she says, "Crazy old man, I'm not young anymore"
"But that's all right", he whispers, I've never painted before

And do you love me Lady Jane, Lady Jane?
Do you love me Lady Jane, Lady Jane?
You got me talkin' to the moon, you got me walkin' in the rain
Do you love me, do you love me Lady Jane?

Oh, I wanna read your tea leaves by candle light
On a fat red velvet sofa, I wanna be with you all night
I wanna tickle your feet with a peacock plume
And she says, "Can you talk a little softer, there are people in the room"

Do you love me Lady Jane, Lady Jane?
Do you love me Lady Jane, Lady Jane?
You got me talkin' to the moon, you got me walkin' in the rain
Do you love me, do you love me Lady Jane?

And Jane says, "My children brought me here and promised me they'd call
Well you know kids forget that's just the way of it all"
And he says, "Well, that makes us both footloose and fancy free
So Jane do you want to come see the Painted Desert with me?"

Do you love me Lady Jane, Lady Jane?
Do you love me Lady Jane, Lady Jane?
You got me talkin' to the moon, you got me walkin' in the rain
Do you love me, do you love me Lady Jane?
Do you love me, do you love me like I love you Lady Jane?
