1st Verse:
Crow Janie, Crow Janie, Crow Jane
Don't you hold your head so high
Someday baby you know you gotta die
I'm gonna buy me a pistol, long as I am tall
Shoot Crow Jane just to see her fall
There's a reason I told Crow Jane
Don't you hold your head so high
Someday baby, you know you gotta die
You got to lay down and die
Lay down...

(Derek break)

2nd Verse:
Oh I dug her grave, with a silver spade
Ain't nobody goin' take Crow Jane's place
There's a reason I told Crow Jane
Don't you hold your head so high
Someday baby, you know you gotta die
Oh I let her down, with a golden chain
With every link I called out Crow Jane's name
Crow Janie, Crow Jane, Crow Janie

(Kofi break)

3rd Verse:
You never miss your water, Till your well runs dry
I didn't miss Crow Jane till the day she died
Oh I let her down, eight feet in the ground
I didn't miss Crow Jane till we put her down
There's a reason I told Crow Jane
Don't hold your head so high, child
Someday baby, you know you gotta die
You got to lay down and die
Lay down and die...

Vocal Outro:
Lay down and die...
Lay down and die...
Lay down and die Crow Janie....
Crow Crow Crow Crow Janie...
Lay down, lay down, lay down...
Lay down, lay down and die...
Lay down, lay down and die...

(Derek solo)
