Sweeter than the honey at a huckleberry bee,
Hi, Jenny, ho, Jenny Johnson!
O my darling Jenny, she’s the sweetest girl in town,
Hi, Jenny, ho, Jenny, ho, my Jenny Johnson!
Captivates the neighborhood for miles an’ miles aroun’,
Hi, Jenny, ho, Jenny Johnson!
Said she loved another an’ it broke my heart in two,
An’ I had to get it mended with a little piece of glue;
She gave me back my locket an’ a little silver shoe,
Hi, Jenny, ho, Jenny Johnson!
