Lyrics

CALAMITY JANE

INTRO
I sympathize: you're fallin' for my old flame
Me, I got burned alive on Lover's Lane
Remember her pet name --
They call her CALAMITY JANE

V.1
Well, she's 25 goin' on 17
She told you from the start, she don't know what love means
Is she a lost lamb? A loose cannon?
"Without you, Daddy, I don't know who I am"
She lives for the sun, don't let it rain
It's all about CALAMITY JANE
Ah, poor little CALAMITY JANE

V.2
Well, here she comes, your Technicolor fairy tale
And the way she walks, you'll wait tomorrow to exhale
She'll take you high, above it all
Is it her fault if you're shattered by the fall?
Part pink champagne, part bullet train
Here comes CALAMITY JANE
Ah, there goes CALAMITY JANE, JANE

BRIDGE
I know her better than you know
I been down that road, still I'm haunted
Not so long ago, I was the only one she wanted

(SOLO)

V.3
Now, tell the truth, it takes two to dance in limbo
You're scratchin' at the glass, she's laughin' through the window
You stomp your feet, you cuss and preach
But don't you love the way she hovers out of reach?
The Jekyl and the Hyde, the pleasure and the pain
You got to love CALAMITY JANE, JANE
Ah, poor little CALAMITY JANE, JANE
Ah, come back, CALAMITY JANE

TAG
You'll never be the same after CALAMAITY JANE(repeat)
