4.Plain Jane

Lyrics:Doc Pomus/Mort Shuman
Music:Doc Pomus/Mort Shuman

My plain Jane never wear
A-no lipstick or paint
You know she'll never try
To be what she ain't.

Come early in the mornin'
You can hear the fellas call woo!
Well, plain Jane won't-cha come out tonight
So we can have a ball.

Help me now

Plain Jane won't-cha come out tonight
Come out tonight, come out tonight
Plain Jane won't-cha come out tonight
An' spend some time with me.

Her mouth's a little too wide
And her nose a wee bit long
And when you take a good look at her
Her shape seems all wrong.

But, she got this certain somethin'
That's so hard to define
And I wish that certain somethin'
Was mine, all mine, all mine woo!

Well, now plain Jane won't-cha come out tonight
Come out tonight, come out tonight
A-plain Jane won't-cha come out tonight
Spend some time with me.

Ooh, wee!
Oh, yeah!

I used to go with glamour girls
Who wore silks day and night
But plain Jane's gotta cotton dress
And it don't fit her right.

I could never, never tell you
Why I love her like I do
But if you took her out for one fine night
You'd feel the same way too.

Won't-cha now

Plain Jane won't-cha come out tonight
Come out tonight, come out tonight
Plain Jane won't-cha come out tonight
An' spend some time with me.

I said spend the time with me
Woo plain Jane
I love her just the same
Oh plain Jane.
