My Blue Eyed Jane - Steve Forbert

The sweetest girl in the world

Is my blue-eyed Jane

We fell in love like turtledoves

While the moon was shining down

I asked her then, I asked her when

Wedding bells would ring

She said, «Oh, dear, it seems so queer

That this could happen here.»

You are my little pal

And I never knew a sweeter gal

My little blue-eyed Jane

I love you so

And when the sun goes down

And the shadow’s creeping over town

Just meet me in the lane

My blue-eyed Jane

Janie dear, listen here

I’ve come to say farewell

The world is drear without you, dear

But now I cannot linger here

I’m going away this very day

Oh please, come go with me

I’ll be sad and blue wanting you

Longing all day through

My little blue-eyed Jane

You’ll always be the same sweet thing

I know you’ll never change

I love you so

And when the sun goes down

And the shadow’s creeping over town

Then I’ll come back again

My blue-eyed Jane

And when the sun goes down

And the shadow’s creeping over town

Then I’ll come back again

My blue-eyed Jane
