The polyester vest she wears at the arcade   On a break from tearing tickets   Every minute spent on this old pinball machine      Savin' up her money to pay her tuition   Got a little left over, she thinks   So she puts it in the machine   'Cause she's got a high score to beat      Hey Jane, I got a little money   Wanna spend it on a night away   We'll drive until tomorrow   Drive a mile for all our sorrows      Hey Jane, I know you're hungry, honey   But I promise you that things will change   Just don't let your life's income   Determine your life's outcome, hey Jane      She had a good job that she traded for cocaine   Every day became the same   And yesterdays were celebrated but forgotten so fast      'Cause everyone around her surrounds her in excess   She's trying harder to convince herself   That all her better days are not in the past   And that this paycheck's gonna last      Hey Jane, I got a little money   Wanna spend it on a night away   We'll drive until tomorrow   Drive a mile for all our sorrows      Hey Jane, I know you're hungry, honey   But I promise you that things will change   Just don't let your life's income   Determine your life's outcome, hey Jane      Hey Jane, I got a little money   Wanna spend it on a night away   We'll drive until tomorrow   Drive a mile for all our sorrows      Hey Jane, I know you're hungry, honey   But I promise you that things will change   Just don't let your life's income   Determine your life's outcome      Hey Jane, I got a little money   Wanna spend it on a night away   We'll drive until tomorrow   Drive a mile for all our sorrows      Hey Jane, I know you're hungry, honey   But I promise you that things will change   Just don't let your life's income   Determine your life's outcome, hey Jane
