#1.
As I was walking by the shore, I happened there
to see, a woman’s form a-lyin’ there, as still as
still could be.
The dress she wore was gingham blue, her hair all
tumbled down.
It might have been my own true love, my sweetheart
Jenny Brown.
#2.
Her face was turned into the sand..’twas who, I couldn’t
tell.
But on her hand was a high school ring..a ring I knew
too well.
My heart stood still, I grasped her arm..and then I turned
her round.
Alas, it was my own true love, my sweetheart Jenny Brown.
Aaaaaaahhh!
SPOKEN:AD LIB: (D Bm Em A)
Oh, Jenny..Brown..why did I treat you cru-el?
Gosh, whizz, Jenny..there was tears in your eyes and you ran
away from me and now here I find you..on the beach all still
and sandy..and flies and stuff.
Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!
#3.
I stared into her loving face..a face that used to clown.
I saw one eye a-flicker, then wink and open round.
Ha! ha! she laughed, then jumped up tall..'I’ll bet you thought
I’d drowned!’
What a rotten sense of humor..has my sweetheart Jenny Brown.
