Bob Dylan: My Blue Eyed Jane (Jimmie Rodgers), Memphis, Tennessee 5 February 1999 (video)

The sweetest girl in the world
Is my blue-eyed Jane
We fell in love like turtledoves
While the moon was shining down
I asked her then, I asked her when
Wedding bells would ring
She said, “Oh, dear, it seems so queer
That this could happen here.”

You are my little pal
And I never knew a sweeter gal
My little blue-eyed Jane
I love you so
And when the sun goes down
And the shadow’s creeping over town
Just meet me in the lane
My blue-eyed Jane

Janie dear, listen here
I’ve come to say farewell
The world is drear without you, dear
But now I cannot linger here
I’m going away this very day
Oh please, come go with me
I’ll be sad and blue wanting you
Longing all day through

My little blue-eyed Jane
You’ll always be the same sweet thing
I know you’ll never change
I love you so
And when the sun goes down
And the shadow’s creeping over town
Then I’ll come back again
My blue-eyed Jane

And when the sun goes down
And the shadow’s creeping over town
Then I’ll come back again
My blue-eyed Jane
