Lyrics
0:06I took my little Jenny to a party last night
0:10At ten o'clock it ended in a heckuva fight
0:13When someone hit my Jenny she went out like a light
0:18Poor Jenny
0:20And then some joker went
0:21And called the cops on the phone
0:23So everybody scattered out for places unknown
0:26I couldn't carry Jenny so I left her alone
0:31Poor Jenny
0:33Well Jenny had her picture in the paper this mornin'
0:37She made it with a bang
0:40Accordin' to the story in the paper this mornin'
0:43Jenny is the leader of a teenage gang
0:47Jenny has a brother and he's hot on my trail
0:50Her daddy wants to ride me out of town on a rail
0:53I hope I'll be around when Jenny gets out of jail
0:58Poor Jenny
1:07I went downtown to see her she was locked in a cell
1:10She wasn't very glad to see me that I could tell
1:13In fact to tell the truth she wasn't lookin' too well
1:16Poor Jenny
1:20Her eye was black her face was red her hair was a fright
1:23She looked as though she'd been a'cryin' half of the night
1:27I told her I was sorry she said Get out of sight
1:30Poor Jenny
1:34It seems a shame that Jenny had to go get apprehended
1:38A heckuva fate
1:40This party was the first one she ever had attended
1:43It had to happen on our very first date
1:47Jenny has a brother and he's hot on my trail
1:50Her daddy wants to ride me out of town on a rail
1:54I hope I'll be around when Jenny gets out of jail
1:59Poor Jenny
I took my little Jenny to a party last night At ten o'clock it ended in a heckuva 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 Well Jenny had her picture in the paper this mornin' She made it with a bang Accordin' to the story in the paper this mornin' Jenny is the leader of a teenage 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 a'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 heckuva 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
