B.J. Thomas – Plain Jane Lyrics

Country

Come all to the junior, senior prom
Biggest occasion of the year and now the time was here
All the girls were going, they all had a date
But what about Jane? What about Plain Jane?

She wasn't pretty, kids made fun of her
But she was gentle as a kittens purr
Still she had to feel the pain when they called her name
Plain Jane, poor Plain Jane

Oh, how she wanted to go to the prom
But no one would ask Plain Jane
Poor little girl living in a cold, cold world
And lonely she was, lonely as could be

But then the phone rang, someone asked for Jane
Tears began to flow like rain
But they were tear of joy, the call was from a boy
Asking Jane to the prom, plain Jane was going to the prom

She was all excited, couldn't wait going on her very first date
Spent the whole day getting dressed
Had to look her very best but now it's half past eight
Guess, her date's gonna be late

Meanwhile at the prom
Everyone was laughing bout the trick they'd played
And the boy who made the call
He was laughing loudest of all

But their joy turned to tears instead
When the morning paper said a girl was dead
Too much pain for a girl with a name Plain Jane
Just too much pain for a girl with a name Plain Jane
Just too much pain for a girl with a name Plain Jane
