Lyrics

Janie Jones

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

He's in love with rock'n'roll, woah

He's in love with gettin' stoned, woah

He's in love with Janie Jones

But he don't like his boring job, no

An' he knows what he's got to do

So he knows he's gonna have fun with you

You lucky lady!

An' he knows when the evening comes

When his job is done he'll be over in his car for you

An' in the in-tray lots of work

But the boss at the firm always thinks he shirks

But he's just like everyone, he's got a Ford Cortina

That just won't run without fuel

Fill her up, Jacko!

An' the invoice it don't quite fit

There's no payola in his alphabetical file

This time he's gonna really tell the boss

Gonna really let him know exactly how he feels

It's pretty bad!

Let them know how you feel
