Lyrics
ELLIE JANE, ELLIE JANE, ELLIE JANE
YOU BEEN SCRATCHIN? ?ROUND MY DOOR AGAIN
YOU JUST THINK YOU?RE SO CLEVER - YOU WANNA CUT LOOSE
SO WHY DON?T YOU OPEN THE DOOR AND JUST HAND ME THE NOOSE
BECAUSE MY MAMA DON?T LOVE ME,
MY DADDY RAN OFF
AND HE AIN?T COMIN? BACK NO MORE
SO STOP YOUR SCRATCHIN? AND MOANIN?
YOU WON?T BE ALONE
IF YOU JUST OPEN UP THAT DOOR?
ELLIE, ELLIE, ELLIE - ELLIE JANE
BABY, WON?T YA TALK TO ME
ELLIE, ELLIE, ELLIE - NOW I THINK IT?S A SHAME
YOU AIN?T NEVER GONNA SET ME FREE
ELLIE?
ELLIE JANE
AH, ELLIE -
ELLIE JANE.
ELLIE JANE, ELLIE JANE, ELLIE JANE
I JUST KNOW YOU BEEN DRINKIN? AGAIN
AND I KNOW YOU BEEN CHEATIN?
AND IT?S GOTTEN ME FEELIN?
LIKE LEAVIN? YOU OUT IN THE RAIN
BECAUSE MY MAMA DON?T LOVE ME,
MY DADDY RAN OFF
AND HE AIN?T COMIN? BACK NO MORE
WE AIN?T HAVIN? NO FUN
YOU AIN?T HELPIN? ME NONE
AND IT SHOULD BE AGAINST THE LAW.
ELLIE, ELLIE, ELLIE - ELLIE JANE
BABY, WON?T YA TALK TO ME
ELLIE, ELLIE, ELLIE - NOW I THINK IT?S A SHAME
YOU AIN?T NEVER GONNA SET ME FREE
ELLIE?
ELLIE JANE
AH, ELLIE -
ELLIE JANE.
