Lyrics Janis Joplin

Janis Joplin

Mary Jane

Now when I go to work, I work all day,

Always turns out the same.

When I bring home my hard-earned pay

I spend my money all on Mary Jane.

Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Lord, my Mary Jane.

Oh if a man should look tame now, mean and mature,

They all turn out the same.

'Cause they can't do nothing to make a man feel good

Like my old Mary Jane.

Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Lord, my Mary Jane.

Now I walk in the street now lookin' for a friend

One that can lend me some change.

And he never questions my reason why,

'Cause he too loves Mary Jane.

Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Lord, my Mary Jane.

Well, I have known women that wanted no man,

Some that wanted to stay.

But I never knew what happened in this world

Till I met up with Mary Jane,

Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Lord my Mary Jane.

Oh, when I'm feelin' lonesome and I'm feelin' blue,

There's only one way to change.

Now I walk down the street now lookin' for a man,

One that knows my Mary Jane,

Mary Jane, Mary Jane, Lord my Mary Jane.
