lyrics

Jane, come down from your room
You've been up there so long I don't know what to do
Oh Jane, come down from your room

Jane, I'm sure you have reasons to cry
I've been hard on my daughter for all of your life
It's nothing you did that made me mad
It's the fact that I've been a terrible Dad
I'm sorry I shouted at you like I did
I need to remember you're only a kid
Whose family's in shambles, before she turned eight
My baby should never have to carry that weight
Oh Janie, my daughter, sweet girl

Jane, come down from your room
You've been up there so long I don't know what to do
Oh Janie, come down from your room

Someday you'll see what it's like to be drunk
And that it's the reason your mother left me
My father and grandad both struggled with it
and I vowed that I'd never, but I still haven't quit
Oh Janie, my daughter, sweet girl

Jane, come down from your room
You've been up there so long I don't know what to do
Jane my girl, I am to blame
I can change my ways now but you won't be the same
Oh Janie, come down from your room

Someday a boy will want to love you
And I hope that he treats you like I didn't do
Your heart will be frigid like a north country frost
But don't drive him away with the trust that you lost
Oh Janie, my daughter, sweet girl

Jane, come down from your room
You've been up there so long I don't know what to do
Jane sweet girl, I wish I agreed
That I'm ready to be the father you need
Oh Janie, come down from your room

about

Goodnight, Texas San Francisco, California

Goodnight, Texas is the garage roots Appalachian collaboration of San Francisco’s Avi Vinocur (formerly of The Stone Foxes) and North Carolina’s Patrick Dyer Wolf.
The band conjures a feeling of a different heavy era in the United States - part 1930s, and part 1860s. The trick: heaviness comes from organic acoustic instruments. In this case, a banjo, acoustic guitar and a 1918 mandolin.
