Lyrics Paolo Nutini – Jenny Don’t Be Hasty
Text:
You said you’d marry me if I was 23
But I’m one that you can’t see for I’m only 18
Tell me who makes these rules
Obviously not you
Oh, Jenny don’t be hasty
No, don’t treat me like a baby
Let me take you where you’ll let me
Because leaving just upsets me
And I’ll be around again to see these other men
That are more adequate in the age department
I did not think you cared.
There’d be no problems here
But now you’re looking at me like you’re disgusted
Then I’m definitely waiting for you to smile and change your mind
Then I’ll say I’m sorry and I’ll wrap my arms ’round your body
I really hope that you forgive in a hurry
And don’t just ask me to leave
Oh, Jenny don’t be hasty
No, don’t treat me like a baby
Let me take you where you’ll let me
Because leaving just upsets me
Oh, Jenny you are crazy!
First I’m perfect, then I’m lazy
And I was calling you my baby
Now it sounds like you just left me.
And it kills me!
Oh, Jenny Don’t Be Hasty
No, Don’t Treat Me Like A Baby
Let Me Take You Where You’ll Let Me
Oh Jenny You Are Crazy
First I’m Perfect, Then I’m Lazy
And I Was Calling You My Baby
Now It Sounds Like You Just Left Me
And It Kills Me
You Said You’d Marry Me If I Was Twenty-Three
But I’m Only One You Can’t See If I’m Only Eighteen
