Poor Jenny

Poor Jenny - The Everly Brothers (艾佛利兄弟)

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
