I took my little Jenny to a party last night
at ten o'clock it ended in a heck of a fight
when someone hit my Jenny she went out like a light
. . . Poor Jenny!
and then some joker went and called the cops on the phone
so ev'rybody scattered out for places unknown
I couldn't carry Jenny so I left her alone
. . . Poor Jenny!
Jenny had her picture in the paper this mor-ning
. . she made it with a bang!
according to the story in the paper this mor-ning
Jenny is the leader of a teen-age gang!
Jenny has a brother and he's hot on my trail
her daddy wants to ride me out of town on a rail
I hope I'll be around when Jenny gets out of jail
. . . Poor Jenny!
I went downtown to see her she was locked in a cell
she wasn't very glad to see me that I could tell
in fact to tell the truth she wasn't lookin' too well
. . . . . Poor Jenny!
her eye was black her face was red her hair was a fright
she looked as though she'd been up cryin' half of the night
I told her I was sorry she said get out of sight
. . . . . Poor Jenny!
it seems a shame that Jenny had to go get apprehended
a heck of a fate
this party was the first one she ever had attended
it had to happen on our very first date
Jenny has a brother and he's hot on my trail
her daddy wants to ride me out of town on a rail
I hope I'll be around when Jenny gets out of jail
. . . Poor Jenny!
