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
