Carpenter BirdThe Persimmon Tree lyrics by David Wax Museum
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.
