Bb                        Gm                   Gb
Took my little Jenny to a party last night, at ten o'clock
              Ebm
it ended in a heck of a fight.
     B                             Bb         Gm7    C    F
When someone hit my Jenny she went out like a light, Poor Jenny.
    Bb                                  Gm7
And then some joker went and called the cops on the phone,
   Gb                          Eb       Ebm
so everybody scattered out for places unknown.
  B                         Bbm      Gm7   C  F    Bb
I couldn't carry Jenny so I left her alone....Poor Jenny.

BRIDGE:
                    Ab             Bb         Ab       Eb
Well, Jenny had her picture in the paper this mornin', she made

it with a bang.
C                Bb           C          Bb       F
According to the story in the paper this morning, Jenny is the

leader of a teenage gang.

CHORUS:
Bb                           Gm7                  Gb
Jenny has a brother and he's hot on my trail, her daddy wants
                  Ebm
to ride me out of town on a rail.
  B                              Bb          Gm7  C  F    Bb
I hope I'll be around when Jenny gets out of jail....Poor Jenny.

  Bb                                Gm7                   Gb
I went downtown to see her, she was locked in a cell, she wasn't
                     Ebm
very glad to see me, that I could tell.
   B                                   Bb          Gm7   C    F
In fact, to tell the truth, she wasn't lookin' too well, Poor Jenny.
    Bb                                   Gm7
Her eye was black, her face was red, her hair was a fright, she
Gb                                    Ebm
looked as though she'd been up cryin' half of the night.
  B                               Bb         Gm7    C  F    Bb
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 heck of a fate.
     C             Bb            C        Bb        F         Cm
This party was the first one she ever had attended..it had to happen
       F
on our very first date.
