Naive ambition led her right into the palm of his hand
Not that she didn't know better
But she'd never been out on the streets before
Lost inhibition, she just had to know the good and the bad
So she took in an apartment and spent all the money she didn't have
No love for Jenny she's wastin' her smile
Takin' a chance that it's all worth her while
Dancin' for strangers, thinkin' she's grown up
Lovin' so many, but no love for Jenny
Fake independence kept her ridin' on the top of his list
Makin' some really good money
But knowin' it wouldn't last very long
A happy birthday, what a way to spend your sweet sixteen
Sayin' she's twenty but lookin' like thirty, hey, what went wrong?
No love for Jenny she's wastin' her smile
Takin' a chance that it's all worth her while
Dancin' for strangers, lookin' so grown up
Lovin' so many, but no love for Jenny
