I been listening to the wind all day Blowin' through the fields Won't you tell me what it takes to make you smile? I know you're thinking 'bout runnin' away Feel the road beneath your wheels Jenny, I told you that it just might take a while
I got a ticket on a midnight train Right here in my hand Take you anywhere a girl might want to go You can whistle I'll come runnin' Leave my people, leave my land 'Cause Jenny I just can't stand to tell you no
Chorus: Jenny Lee what you're lookin' for you can't find Fool's gold in a silver mine Just runnin' away won't make you free Well you never see nothin' if your eyes are blind The rain won't stop and the sun don't shine Please don't make me follow Jenny Lee
I was a settled down family man I had money in the bank, yeh I had plans That's not too bad for a little town kid Then I met Jenny and Jenny met me She was pretty good company There's days you know when I wished I never did
Chorus
Chorus till fade: Jenny Lee what you're lookin' for you can't find Fool's gold in a silver mine Please don't make me follow you Jenny Lee
