Slaid Cleaves - Jennie`s All Right

Jennie had a little trouble back when
Home to home and back again
Now it's job to job and that's how it goes
Holding on to secrets nobody knows

Hey, hey, Jennie's all right
Just to find someone to hold through the night
Hey, hey, Jennie's okay
A rollin' and a tumblin' through to the daylight

Jennie's new job keeps her in line
She's out all night but she's in at nine
Jennie knows this life is gonna end
And she'll be back on the street again

Hey, hey, Jennie's all right
Just to find someone to hold through the night
Hey, hey, Jennie's okay
A rollin' and a tumblin' through to the daylight

She's been waiting her whole life through
She's been waiting so long
She still waits to see what the morning light brings
She gets up to see if the daylight shows
Those bright shiny things
See if this bird sings

Jennie caught his come on just about there
Between her third margarita and Eddie's third beer
She never gave a second to how she'd get home
Too short on love and too long alone

Hey, hey, Jennie's all right
Just to find someone to hold through the night
Hey, hey, Jennie's okay
A rollin' and a tumblin' through to the daylight
