Her whole world's come undone, from looking straight at the sun

What did her daddy do? What did he put you through?

Dm(add9)
They said when Janie was arrested,

Bb(add#11) F. F5. Eb5/F. Ab5/F. Eb5/F. F5
They found him underneath a train,

Dm(add9) Bb(add#11)
But man he had it coming, now that Janie's got a gun

Gm7 C F/C C7..
She ain't never gonna be the same


Janie's got a gun. Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun, Now everybody is on the run
Tell me now it's untrue, What did her daddy do?
He jacked a little bitty baby
The man has got to be insane
They say the spell that he was under, The lightning and the thunder
Knew that someone had to stop the rain

Db Eb Fm7
Run away, Run away from the pain, Yeah, yeah, Yeah, yeah

Janie's got a gun, Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun, Now everybody's on the run
What did her daddy do? It's Janie's last I.O.U
She had to take him down easy
And put a bullet in his brain
She said cos nobody believes me, The man was such a sleaze
He aint never gonna be the same

Run away, run away from the pain, Yeah yeah, yeah,yeah, yeah
Run away, run away,from the pain yeah, yeah, yeahyeah yeah, yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away...........................

Awesome song, I loved it when it first came out and I was only a kid. It has a darker sound and meaning that other Aeorosmith songs, very unique song. Love it And it's pretty obvious what it's about.

turtonhot, that was pretty harsh. What if something like that happened? What if it happened to you? Would you just sit back and take it?

This song deals with some very controversial issues. Hopefully it has waken some people up and made them realize that it's not such a peaceful world we live in.

I can't believe that some people actually missed the message of this song... It's not really hidden.

This song is about a girl being sexually abused by her father and eventually killing him. I don't know if it's true, but I heard that this song was written by Steven Tyler in response to many survivors' groups getting angry at the video for the song Ragdoll.

Heard this on the radio on the way home from class today. Interesting song. Reminds me of some lyrics I wrote a while back; I can't write music worth a damn, though. x.x http://www.geocities.com/azzathoth/lyrics/louder2.3.txt what do you guys think of that one?

This song seems pretty sad. I think it might have to do with physical abuse or something. I LOVE Aerosmith- I'm just not that big on this song.

i think this is about a girl being abused by her father. If you listen really careful at the end it says" Was it daddys craddle robbin' " wouldn't you shoot someone if they where hurting you and no on belived you?

Great song. Janie's awesome for taking things into her owns hands to save her from the abusive father...even if she did kill him but "the man was such a sleaze."

Steven Tyler wrote this song after reading aricles in some magazine. The article was about trouble in the world and included both child abuse and gun control. These stories are what inspired him to write this song.

no i wouldnt take it, but i was slightly cynically amused by wildflower's claim that it was about her...listening to the song paints a rather negative picture - considering it is about child abuse and the consequences of it. And how the hell am I harsh? I sincerely doubt that wildflower can relate to any of the (fictional) events portrayed in this song, although I do wholeheartedly apologise for my seriously derogatory comments if this happens to be the case...
