The polyester vest she wears at the arcade
On a break from tearing tickets
Every minute spends 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 night dream
Everyday became the same, even 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 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
