Sweet Lady Jane Lyrics

She was the prettiest girl you've ever seen
Everybody said little Jane's gonna be a beauty queen
Like a rare flower, a summer breeze
She had the kinda somethin'
That could bring you to your knees

But no one heard her cry at night
And no one saw the pain inside
When he opens her door to turn out the light
In her mind little Jane ran away
A hundred thousand times

"Sweet lady Jane", that's what her daddy used to say
Now the voices in the dark just won't go away
"Sweet lady Jane", that's what her daddy used to say
All the voices in her head, she can't stand the sound of her name
Sweet lady Jane

Now she spends her nights lookin' for the things she lost
She's willing to pay the price, no matter what the cost
She's just trying to find the little girl she was before
Before he started creepin' in
And lockin' up her door

You can take her home
If the money's right
You can do anything you want
But you can't kiss her goodnight

"Sweet lady Jane", that's what her daddy used to say
Now the voices in the dark just won't go away
"Sweet lady Jane", that's what her daddy used to say
All the voices in her head, she can't stand the sound of her name
Sweet lady Jane

Little Jane, talkin' about sweet Jane
Little Jane, talkin' about sweet Jane
Little Jane, talkin' about sweet Jane

Sweet lady Jane, can't stand the pain
Can't forget the times
That he kept whisperin' her name, "Jane"
Sweet lady Jane, just can't run away
All the voices in her head
She can't stand the sound of her name

"Sweet lady Jane", that's what her daddy used to say
Now the voices in the dark just won't go away
"Sweet lady Jane", that's what her daddy used to say
All the voices in her head
She can't stand the sound of her name
Sweet, sweet lady Jane

Sweet lady, sweet lady Jane, sweet lady, sweet lady Jane
Sweet lady, sweet lady Jane, sweet lady, sweet lady Jane
Sweet lady, sweet lady Jane, sweet lady, sweet lady Jane
