Jennie Jenkins



Will you wear white, oh my dear, oh my dear

Oh will you wear white, Jennie Jenkins?

I won't wear white

For the color's too bright



I'll buy me a fol-de-roldy-tildy-toddy

seek-a-double, use-a-cause-a-roll-the-find-me

Roll, Jennie Jenkins, roll



Will you wear blue, my dear, oh my dear

Oh, wear you blue, Jennie Jenkins

I won't wear blue

The color's too true



Will you wear red, my dear, oh my dear

Oh will you wear red, Jennie Jenkins

I won't wear red

It's the color of my head



Will you wear black, my dear, oh my dear

Oh will you wear black, Jennie Jenkins

I won't wear black

It's the color of my back



Will you wear purple, my dear, oh my dear

Oh will you wear purple, Jennie Jenkins

I won't wear purple

It's the color of a turkle



Will you wear green, my dear, oh my dear

Oh will you wear green, Jennie Jenkins

I won't wear green

For it's a shame to be seen
