Hey Jane

The polyester vest she wears at the arcade On a break from tearing tickets Every minute spent on this old pinball machine Savin' up her money to pay her tuition Got a little left over, she thinks So she puts it in the machine 'Cause she's got a high score to beat Hey Jane, I got a little money Wanna spend it on a night away We'll drive until tomorrow Drive a mile for all our sorrows Hey Jane, I know you're hungry, honey But I promise you that things will change Just don't let your life's income Determine your life's outcome, hey Jane She had a good job that she traded for cocaine Every day became the same And yesterdays were celebrated but forgotten so fast 'Cause everyone around her surrounds her in excess She's trying harder to convince herself That all her better days are not in the past And that this paycheck's gonna last Hey Jane, I got a little money Wanna spend it on a night away We'll drive until tomorrow Drive a mile for all our sorrows Hey Jane, I know you're hungry, honey But I promise you that things will change Just don't let your life's income Determine your life's outcome, hey Jane Hey Jane, I got a little money Wanna spend it on a night away We'll drive until tomorrow Drive a mile for all our sorrows Hey Jane, I know you're hungry, honey But I promise you that things will change Just don't let your life's income Determine your life's outcome Hey Jane, I got a little money Wanna spend it on a night away We'll drive until tomorrow Drive a mile for all our sorrows Hey Jane, I know you're hungry, honey But I promise you that things will change Just don't let your life's income Determine your life's outcome, hey Jane
