Janine Lyrics
Janine, I drink you up
Janine, I drink you up
Janine, Janine, I sing
If you were the Baltic Sea and I were a cup, uh huh
Varick Street and I drove South
With my hands on the wheel and your taste in my mouth,
Janine
Jesus to my left, the Holland Tunnel on my right
Angels shine down from the traffic light,
Janine
I fell asleep by the blue light of Live at Five
And as I drifted off, I heard Al Roker say to me:
Dial one nine hundred
Four Jay Ay En Eye En Ee.
Slap myself to waking but now it's too late
Cause I spelled your name out on my licence plate,
Janine
Janine, I drink you up
Janine, Janine, I sing
If you were the Baltic Sea and I were a cup, uh huh
With my hands on the wheel and your taste in my mouth,
Janine
Angels shine down from the traffic light,
Janine
And as I drifted off, I heard Al Roker say to me:
Dial one nine hundred
Four Jay Ay En Eye En Ee.
Cause I spelled your name out on my licence plate,
Janine

This isnt even about someone Doughty knows .
The story goes that he was approached one day on the street by a drunk guy who asked him how to get a woman to love him . Doughty replied that the guy should write a song for her , but in his drunken madness he began yelling that Doughty should write a song for the girl , her name is Janine he told him .
He doesnt know Janine . The answering machine bit was done by his girlfriend at the time , and not the mysterious Janine .
@jaime awesome thank you
@jaime awesome thank you
I hate love songs that say the word "love" all the time and are sappy, this is the epitome of a true love song. Concise."Janine I drink you up". Those words are so simple, but it's exactly right.Doughty is a master of words.
this song rocks the socks .. but why the hell did the kids spell is "jay ay en eye en ee"!!?!? those aren't buttons on the phone ..stuuuupid. anyways the number would be 1-800-452-6463.
this is doughty's happy love song.
1-718-768-0044
Friction.
To respond to yiggie: mrtrout was just writing down what is on Mike's website. The "Jay Ay En Eye En Ee" is letter for letter what came from the man himself. Check yourself before you name call.
omg. I so feel great right now to see a song written for 'Janine' [my name] lol.
If you were the baltic sea and I were a cup
If only I could make love to this song. Hail Doughty
Is there any way we could find out what the answering machine is singing/saying? It complements the song so well!
It's Doughty's then-girlfriend Rachel Benbow Murdy, reciting the lyrics of an old song called "Lemon Tree". It was made famous by Peter, Paul and Mary, though they weren't the first to record it.

Does anyone have more info on what he means when he says, "If i was the Baltic Sea and you where a cup". Obviously a cup cant drink the whole Baltic Sea. So is he trying to say how great she is while still saying he's going to get as much of her as possible?
My bad, "If YOU were the....I where a cup"

Or is he, as I've noticed, making fun of the guy who gave him the idea for this song. Apparently the "guy" isn't good enough for her??
