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
