capo 1 — sounds a semitone higherIntro
Verse
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 everybody scattered out for places unknown
I couldn't carry Jenny so I left her alone
Poor Jenny!
Bridge
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
E NC E7
Jenny is the leader of a teen-age gang!
Verse
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!
Break
Verse
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 looking too well
Poor Jenny!
Her eyes were black, her face was red, her hair was a fright
She looked as though she'd been up crying half of the night
I told her I was sorry she said "Get outta sight"
Poor Jenny!
Bridge
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
E NC E7
It had to happen on our very first date
Verse
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!
Break
A mouldy golden oldie from Kraziekhat
