I took my little Jenny to a party last night  
   F                         Dm
At ten o'clock it ended in a heck of a fight                   
     A#                            A
When someone hit my Jenny she went out like a light
B            E
. . .   Poor Jenny! 

    A                                   F#m
And then some joker went and called the cops on the phone
   F                           Dm
So everybody scattered out for places unknown
  A#                        A
I couldn't carry Jenny so I left her alone
B     E    A
. . . Poor Jenny!

Jenny had her picture in the paper this mor-ning
D
. . .  she made it with a bang! 
  B              A            B          A     B
According to the story in the paper this mor-ning
E (stop)
Jenny is the leader of a teen-age gang!

Jenny  has a brother and he's hot on my trail
    F                             Dm
Her daddy wants to ride me out of town on a rail
  A#                             A
I hope I'll be around when Jenny gets out of jail
B     E    A
.   . Poor Jenny!

I went downtown to see her she was locked in a cell 
    F                          Dm
She wasn't very glad to see me that I could tell 
   A#                                A
In fact to tell the truth she wasn't lookin' too well 
B             E
. . .   Poor Jenny! 

A                                        F#m
Her eye was black, her face was red, her hair was a fright 
    F                                     Dm
She looked as though she'd been up cryin' half of the night 
  A#                            A
I told her I was sorry she said get out of sight 
B     E    A
. . . Poor Jenny!

It seems a shame that Jenny had to go get apprehended 
  D
A heck of a fate

This party was the first one she ever had attended

It had to happen on our very first date
