Sister Jane

Come in

sit down

pull up a chair.

Speak the truth when you tell me your cares;

Don't be afraid to talk to your brother

get a hold of yourself an' dry up your tears.

We'll start at the start

and end at the end

you'll find that your mind might possibly mend

I'm sure I can help you 'cos you can't help yourself.

Have you fallen in love again

have you falen in love again ?

Sister Jane

you've gone and changed your name

you gotta get out soon

before you go insane

before the town starts talkin'

and they see you out walkin'

it sure does seem a shame

yes

it sure does seem a shame.

Sister Jane

you've gone and changed your name

and I suggest you catch

the twelve forty five 'plane

before the fam'ly finds out

just what you've done

and holds you at the point of a gun

and that ain't gobnna be much fun.

Sister Jane.

We'll talk of the future

we'll talk of the past

the odds were against you it never could last

you can't think opinions will change overnight

when you know what you've done just ain't right.

You don't mean to tell me you've finally done it

you played at the game and you thought you had won it

and now that you find that you're way out of line

well

some people call it a crime

yeah you really have done it this time.

Sister Jane

you've gone and changed your name

you gotta get out soon...

Sister Jane.

You told me the truth

you opened your mind

said I would listen

and help you unwind

my dear Sister Jane you've caused nothing but pain

and I really must tell you this time.

I knew all along you had to go wrong

in this kind of town you could never belong

I'm sorry for you

and I'm sorry for me

this is the way it should end

'cos you've fallen in love again.
