Jimmie Rodgers
My Blue Eyed Jane
Now the sweetest girl in the world
Is my blue eyed Jane
We fell in love like turtle doves
When the moon was shining down
I asked her then, I asked her when
The wedding bells would ring
She said oh dear
It seemed so queer that this could happen here
Refrain:
You are my little pal and I never knew a sweeter gal
My little old 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
Break (steel guitar / fiddle)
Now Janie dear listen here
I've come to say farewell
Now 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, a-wanting you
Longing all day through
Refrain:
You are my 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
