    Oh, all the poets they studied rules of verse, And those ladies, they rolled their eyes - Sweet jane! whoa! sweet jane, oh-oh-a! sweet jane!

    Ill tell you something - Jack, he is a banker - And jane, she is a clerk; Both of them save their monies, ha! And when, when they come home from work - Oh, sittin down by the fire, oh!

    The radio does play, the classical music there, jim - the march of the wooden soldiers, all you protest kids - you can hear jack say, get ready, ah!
