"My Blue Eyed Jane" lyrics

"My Blue Eyed Jane"
(originally by Jimmie Rodgers)

The sweetest girl in the world is my blue eyed Jane
We fell in love like turtle doves while the moon was shining down
I asked her then, I asked her when the wedding bells would ring
She said, "Oh dear, it seems so queer, that this could happen here"

You're my little pal, and I've never known 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, and now I cannot linger here
I'm going away this very day, oh, please come go with me
I'll be sad and blue wantin' you, longin' 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 a shadow's creeping over town
Then I'll come back again, my blue eyed Jane
