   G             C                D
1. Spanish Johnny drove in from the underworld last night
   G                          C
   With bruised arms and broken rhythm in a beat-up old Buick
   G                D
   But dressed just like dynamite
   G                       C                 D
   He tried sellin' his heart to the hard girls over on Easy Street
   G                       C                G                    D
   But they sighed Johnny it falls apart so easy and you know hearts these days are cheap
   C                                              G
   And the pimps swung their axes and said Johnny you're a cheater
   C                                              G
   Well the pimps swung their axes and said Johnny you're a liar
   C                                                             G
   And from out of the shadows came a young girl's voice said Johnny don't cry
     
   C     C/B  Am   C/B
   Puerto Rican Jane
   C C/B      Am      C/B        G
   oh won't you tell me what's your name
   C        C/B        Am            C/B
   I want to drive you down to the other side of town
   C                C/B
   Where paradise ain't so crowded there'll be
   Am           C/B           G
   action goin' down on Shanty Lane tonight
   D                          C
   All them golden-heeled fairies in a real bitch fight
   G                  D
   Pull thirty eights and kiss the girls good night
   
   G               C      D
R: Oh good night, it's alright Jane
   G         C              D
   Now let them black boys in to light the soul flame
   G                 C             D
   We may find it out on the street tonight baby
   G            C               D
   Or we may walk until the daylight maybe
     
   G            C                     D
2. Well like a cool Romeo he made his moves, oh she looked so fine
   G                        C                     G                     D
   Like a late Juliet she knew he'd never be true but then she didn't really mind
   G                   C                                 D
   Upstairs a band was playin' the singer was singin' something about goin' home
   G                         C                   G             D
   She whispered Spanish Johnny, you can leave me tonight but just don't leave me alone
   
   
   C     C/B  Am  C/B
   And Johnny cried Puerto Rican Jane
   C      C/B     Am        C/B      G
   Word is down the cops have found the vein
   C       C/B            Am            C/B
   Oh them barefoot boys left their homes for the woods
   C              C/B          Am             C/B
   Them little barefoot street boys they say homes ain't no good
   G     D                     C
   They left the corners threw away all their switchblade knives
   G                    D
   And kissed each other goodbye
   
   G                         C                                 D
   Johnny was sittin' on the fire escape watchin' the kids playin' down the street
   G                          C
   He called down Hey little heroes, summer's long
   D
   But I guess it ain't very sweet around here anymore
   G                         C
   Janey sleeps in sheets damp with sweat
   D
   Johnny sits up alone and watches her dream on, dream on
   G
   And the sister prays for lost souls
   C                        D
   Then breaks down in the chapel after everyone's gone
   G
   Jane moves over to share her pillow
   C                                  D
   But opens her eyes to see Johnny up and putting his clothes on
   C
   She says those romantic young boys
   G
   All they ever want to do is fight
   C
   Those romantic young boys they're callin' through the window
   G                         D
   Hey Spanish Johnny, you want to make a little easy money tonight?
   
   And Johnny whispered
   
   G               C        D
R2:Good night, it's all tight Jane
   G                C               D

   G            C               D
   Or we may walk until the daylight maybe
   
   G               C        D

   G               C        D
R4:Ah Good night, it's all right Jane
   G                C               D
   I'll meet you tomorrow night on Lover's Lane
   G                      C             D
   Now we may find it out on...on the street tonight baby
   G                     C            D
   Or we may have to walk until the morning light ahhh
