Not even anbition
Led her right in to the palm of his hand
Not that she didn’t know better
But she never been out on the streets before

Lost in her anbition
She just had to know the good and the bad
So she took a apartment
And spend all the money she didn’t have

No love for Jenny
She’s wasting her smile
Takeing a chance that it’s all worth her wile
Dancin for strangers
Thinking she’s grown up
Loving so many
But no love for Jenny

Fakeing dependents
Kept her right on top of his list
Makeing some really good money
But knowing it won’t last very long
A happy birthday
What away to spend your sweet 16
Saying she’s 20 but looking like 30
Hey what went wrong

No love for Jenny
She’s wasting her smile
Takeing a chance that it’s all worth her wile
Dancin for strangers
Looking so grown up
Loving so many
But no love for Jenny
