《Jenny》歌词

[00:00:00] The Saga of Jenny - Gertrude Lawrence

[00:00:09] There once was a girl named Jenny

[00:00:13] Whose virtues were varied and many

[00:00:17] Excepting that she was inclined

[00:00:21] Always to make up her mind

[00:00:26] And Jenny points a moral

[00:00:28] With which you cannot quarrel

[00:00:30] As you will find

[00:00:34] Jenny made her mind up when she was three

[00:00:38] She herself was going to trim the Christmas tree

[00:00:42] Christmas Eve she lit the candles tossed the taper away

[00:00:46] Little Jenny was an orphan on Christmas day

[00:00:50] Jenny made her mind up when she was twelve

[00:00:54] That into foreign languages she would delve

[00:00:58] But at seventeen to Vassar it was quite a blow

[00:01:01] That in twenty seven languages she couldn't say no

[00:01:07] Poor Jenny bright as a penny

[00:01:10] Her equal would be hard to find

[00:01:14] To Jenny I'm beholden her heart was big and golden

[00:01:17] But she would make up her mind

[00:01:23] Jenny made her mind up at twenty two

[00:01:28] To get herself a husband was the thing to do

[00:01:31] She got herself all dolled up in her satins and furs

[00:01:35] And she got herself a husband but he wasn't hers

[00:01:39] Jennt made her mind up at thirty nine

[00:01:43] She would take a trip to the argentine

[00:01:47] She was only on vacation but the Latins agree

[00:01:50] Jenny was the one who started the good neighbour policy

[00:01:55] Poor Jenny bright as a penny

[00:01:58] Her equal would be hard to find

[00:02:02] Oh passion doesn't vanish

[00:02:04] In Portuguese or Spanish

[00:02:06] But she would make up her mind

[00:02:12] Jenny made her mind up at seventy five

[00:02:16] She would live to be the oldest woman alive

[00:02:20] But gin and rum and destiny play funny tricks

[00:02:24] And poor Jenny kicked the bucket at seventy six

[00:02:28] Jenny points a moral

[00:02:30] With which we cannot quarrel

[00:02:32] Makes a lot of common sense

[00:02:35] Jenny and her saga

[00:02:37] Prove that you are gaga

[00:02:39] If you don't keep sitting on the fence

[00:02:43] Jenny and her story

[00:02:45] Point the way to glory

[00:02:47] To all man and womankind

[00:02:51] Anyone with vision

[00:02:53] Comes to this decision

[00:02:55] Don't make up you shouldn't make up

[00:02:57] You mustn't make up oh never make up

[00:02:59] Anyone with vision

[00:03:01] Comes to this decision

[00:03:03] Don't make up your mind
