Sweet Jane lyrics
"Sweet Jane" Lou Reed Velvet Underground Standing on the corner, suitcase in my
hand, Jack is in his corset, and Jane is in her vest, and, me, I'm in a
rock'n'roll band. Huh! Ridin' in a Stutz-Bearcat, Jim Y'know, those were
different times! Oh, all the poet, they studied rules of verse, And the ladies,
they rolled their eyes. Sweet Jane! Whoa! Sweet Jane, oh-oh-a! Sweet Jane!
I'll tell you something, Jack, he is a banker, And Jane, she is a clerk. Both
of them save their monies, ha, And when, when they come home from work! Ooh!
Sittin' down by the fire, oh! The radio does play, The classical music there,
Jim. "The March of the Wooden Soldiers". All you protest kids. You can hear
Jack say, get ready, ah, Sweet Jane! Come on baby! Sweet Jane! Oh-oh-a! Sweet
Jane! Some people, they like to go out dancing, And other peoples, they have to
work. Just watch me now! And there's even some evil mothers, Well they're
gonna tell you that everything is just dirt. Y'know that, women, never really
faint, And that villains always blink their eyes, woo! And that, y'know,
children are the only ones who blush! And that, life is, just to die! And,
everyone who ever had a heart, oh, That wouldn't turn around and break it. And
anyone who ever played a part, whoa, And wouldn't turn around and hate it!
Sweet Jane! Whoa-oh-oh! Sweet Jane! Sweet Jane. Sweet Jane. Sweet Jane.
Sweet Jane.
