ch' dum dum dum, honey what have you done
ch' dum dum dum, it's the sound of my gun
ch' dum dum dum, honey what have you done
ch' dum dum dum, it's the sound, it's the sound
Janie got a gun
Janie got a gun
whole world's come undone
lookin' straight at the sun
what did her daddy do
what did he put you through
they say when Janie was arrested
they found him underneath a train
but man he had it comin'
now that Janie's got a gun
she ain't never gonna be the same
Janie got a gun
Janie got a gun
dog days 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
run away, run away from the pain
run away, run away from the pain
run away, run away
run, run away
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 [alt: she left him in the pouring rain]
she said 'cause nobody believes me
the man was such a sleaze
he ain't never gonna be the same
honey honey, what's the problem
tell me it ain't right
was it your daddy's cradle-robbin' that
made you scream at night
Dum dum dum, honey what have you done?
Dum dum dum, it's the sound of my gun
Dum dum dum, honey what have you done?
Dum dum dum, it's the sound
Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her whole world's come undone
From lookin' straight at the sun
What did her daddy do?
What did he put you through?
They say when Janie was arrested
They found him underneath a train
But man, he had it comin'
Now that Janie's got a gun
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
Run away, run away from the pain
Yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah,yeah
Run away, run away from the pain
Yeah,yeah yeah yeah yeah
Run away, run away,run,run away
(instrumental)
Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
What did her daddy do?
It was Janie's last I.O.U
She had to take him down easy
And put a bullet in his brain
She said 'cause nobody believes me
The man was such a sleaze, he ain't
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 yeah yeah yeah
Run away, run away, run, run away...........
Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Everybody is on the run
Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
Because Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun
Now everybody is on the run
Janie's got a gun
Janie's got a gun
Her dog day's just begun.....
(Steven Tyler in the Background while chorus out)
Honey, honey what's the problem?

| About this ... | - This is about a girl who shoots her father because he is sexually abusing her. Steven Tyler wrote it after reading an article about children who had been killed by guns.
- Tyler wrote the line "He raped a little, bitty baby," but changed it to "He jacked a little, bitty baby" at the request of his record company, who worried that radio stations would not play it if it was too graphic.
- Tyler said this was the hardest song he had ever written.
- This was Aerosmith's biggest hit to that point.
- The video depicted a girl killing her father. It got lots of play on MTV. The video was directed by David Fincher, who went on to direct Alien III and Panic Room. It starred Kristin Dattilo as Janie, and Lesley Ann Warren as her mother.
- In 1991, this won a Grammy for Best Rock Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.
