Fulton County Jane Doe Lyrics
[Intro]
1, 2, 3, 4...
[Verse 1]
Out in the middle of nowhere
With nothing much else to do
Oh, the night brought us together
And I lent my heart to you
[Verse 2]
Maybe you were running way from something
Without so much as a plan
Not a living soul to guide you
Jesus tattooed on your hand
[Chorus]
God, the whole world's gone crazy
And there's only God to blame
Somebody called you something sweet once
It was more than Fulton County Jane
[Verse 3]
And when my heart has no rest
And a thousand things are on my mind
I'll always save some room for you
I won't let you get left behind
[Verse 4]
Oh, and I always will remember
When the lonely day is through
That somewhere fall from Fulton County
A stranger says a prayer for you
[Chorus]
God, the whole world's gone crazy
And there's only God to blame
Your mother calls you something sweet once
It was more than Fulton County Jane
Fulton County Jane
[Verse 5]
We came into this life with nothing
And all we're taking is a name
That's why I've written you this song
This is for Fulton County Jane
[Chorus]
God, the whole world's gone crazy
And there's only God to blame
Your mother calls you something sweet once, darling
You're more than Fulton County, Fulton County Jane
Fulton County Jane
[Outro]
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
1, 2, 3, 4...
Out in the middle of nowhere
With nothing much else to do
Oh, the night brought us together
And I lent my heart to you
Maybe you were running way from something
Without so much as a plan
Not a living soul to guide you
Jesus tattooed on your hand
God, the whole world's gone crazy
And there's only God to blame
Somebody called you something sweet once
It was more than Fulton County Jane
And when my heart has no rest
And a thousand things are on my mind
I'll always save some room for you
I won't let you get left behind
Oh, and I always will remember
When the lonely day is through
That somewhere fall from Fulton County
A stranger says a prayer for you
God, the whole world's gone crazy
And there's only God to blame
Your mother calls you something sweet once
It was more than Fulton County Jane
Fulton County Jane
We came into this life with nothing
And all we're taking is a name
That's why I've written you this song
This is for Fulton County Jane
God, the whole world's gone crazy
And there's only God to blame
Your mother calls you something sweet once, darling
You're more than Fulton County, Fulton County Jane
Fulton County Jane
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

I read an article in the ATL paper about a young woman found dead in ATL that they never were able to identify. She was called "Fulton County Jane Doe" in the headline. I assume Brandi saw this and was saddened that someone died with no connection or family. The detail about the tattoo "Jesus" on her hand was in the article. I also think Brandi wanted to immortalize her by paying tribute to her and putting it out in the world.
