I had no knife but myself It was me I cut but you bled as well How could I help my dear sweet pretty one When I could not put down the gun?
And I don't know your name Sweet baby Jane
You'll find it unbelievable I left you in the hospital And you don't have a stitch to wear 'Cause the doctors cut the clothes right off your back And guess what I don't care About who or what or when or where And heaven knows I burnt your clothes
That's it there's no road left to run I spilled myself 'til I had none I grew thorns upon your path They struck not at your feet but at your heart
Still don't know your name Sweet baby Jane
You'll find it unbelievable I left you in the hospital And you don't have a stitch to wear 'Cause the doctors cut the clothes right off your back And guess what I don't care About who or what or when or where And heaven knows I burnt your clothes
I howled outside your door I was a wolf but I'll return no more This life is black and running through a heart that's cursed I lost the best but can I lost the worst?
I'll soon know your name Sweet baby Jane
You'll find it unbelievable I left you in the hospital And you don't have a stitch to wear 'Cause the doctors cut the clothes right off your back And guess what I don't care About who or what or when or where And heaven knows I burnt your clothes
I burnt your clothes I know your name You're my sweet baby Jane
