You said you'd marry me if I was 23

But I'm one that you can't see for I'm only 18

Tell me who makes these rules

Obviously not you

Who are you answering to?

Oh, jenny don't be hasty

No, don't treat me like a baby

Let me take you where you'll let me

Because leaving just upsets me

And I'll be around again to see these other men

That are more adequate in the age department

I did not think you cared.

There'd be no problems here

But now you're looking at me like you're disgusted

Then I'm definitely waiting for you to smile and change your mind

Then I'll say I'm sorry and I'll wrap my arms 'round your body

I really hope that you forgive in a hurry

And don't just ask me to leave

Oh, jenny don't be hasty

No, don't treat me like a baby

Let me take you where you'll let me

Because leaving just upsets me

Oh, jenny you are crazy!

First I'm perfect, then I'm lazy

And I was calling you my baby

Now it sounds like you just left me.

And it kills me!

Oh, jenny don't be hasty

No, don't treat me like a baby

Let me take you where you'll let me

Because leaving just upsets me

Oh jenny you are crazy

First I'm perfect, then I'm lazy

And I was calling you my baby

Now it sounds like you just left me

And it kills me

You said you'd marry me if I was twenty-three

But I'm only one you can't see if I'm only eighteen
