Will you wear red, oh my dear, oh my dear
Will you wear red, Jennie Jenkins?
No, I won't wear red
It's the color of my head

I'll buy me a fol-de-roldy-tildy-toddy
Seek-a-double, use-a-cause-a-roll-the-find-me
Roll, Jennie Jenkins, roll

Will you wear blue, my dear, oh my dear
Will you wear blue, Jennie Jenkins
No, I won't wear blue
The color's too true

I'll buy me a fol-de-roldy-tildy-toddy
Seek-a-double, use-a-cause-a-roll-the-find-me
Roll, Jennie Jenkins, roll

Will you wear green, my dear, oh my dear
Will you wear green, Jennie Jenkins
No, I won't wear green
For it's a shame to be seen

I'll buy me a fol-de-roldy-tildy-toddy
Seek-a-double, use-a-cause-a-roll-the-find-me
Roll, Jennie Jenkins, roll

Will you wear orange, my dear, oh my dear
Will you wear orange, Jennie Jenkins
No, I won't wear orange
For it's too strange

I'll buy me a fol-de-roldy-tildy-toddy
Seek-a-double, use-a-cause-a-roll-the-find-me
Roll, Jennie Jenkins, roll

Will you wear purple, my dear, oh my dear
Will you wear purple, Jennie Jenkins
No, I won't wear purple
It's the color of a turkle

I'll buy me a fol-de-roldy-tildy-toddy
Seek-a-double, use-a-cause-a-roll-the-find-me
Roll, Jennie Jenkins, roll

(Will you wear black, my dear, oh my dear
Oh will you wear black, Jennie Jenkins
I won't wear black
It's the color of my back)

(Will you wear white, oh my dear, oh my dear
Oh will you wear white, Jennie Jenkins?
I won't wear white
For the color's too bright)
