Well, Jenny, just because I love you
Your momma's heart is gonna falter
Jenny, just because I love you
Your momma's heart is gonna falter
Well I sure hope it recovers
By the time we reach the alter
I sure hope it recovers
By the time we reach the alter
Oh Jenny, Jenny June-bug
Under the persimmon tree;
Your mom is right
You are too good for me
Oh, Jenny, just because I love you
Your mom is threatenin' in Alabama
Jenny, just because I love you
Your mom is threatenin' in Alabama
Tell her we'll need he around
Because soon she'll be a grand'ma
Tell her we'll need he around
Because soon she'll be a grand'ma
Oh Jenny, Jenny June-bug
Under the persimmon tree;
Your mom is right
You are too good for me
Oh, Jenny, just because I love you
Your mom is cursing her rotten luck
Jenny, just because I love you
Your mom is cursing her rotten luck
Remind her to be grateful
You're not dating that other schmuck
Remind her to be grateful
You're not dating that other schmuck
Oh Jenny, Jenny June-bug
Under the persimmon tree;
Your mom is right
You are too good for me
Oh, Jenny, just because I love you
Your mom has come all undone
Jenny, just because I love you
Your mom has come all undone
I own no suit, I have no job
But soon I'll be her son
I own no suit, I have no job
But soon I'll be her son
Oh Jenny, Jenny June-bug
Under the persimmon tree;
Your mom is right
You are too good for me
Oh Jenny, Jenny June-bug
Under the persimmon tree;
Your mom is right
You are too good for me
