Spin Jenny,
Spin Jenny,
Weave me a suit,
Made of the finest thread,
Wrap me in memories stitched in the cloth,
From each sweet word you’ve said.
The fit was perfect,
Just as I hoped it would be,
If only there were some dear friends,
To take a look at me.
Sing Jenny,
Sing Jenny,
Give me a song,
Plucked from the core of your heart,
Soft as the whispers we traded at dusk,
Now that we drift apart.
The tune was perfect,
Just as I hoped it would be,
I wish my brothers could be here,
To drink a toast to me.
Dig Jenny,
Dig Jenny,
Fashion a grave,
To bury my weary bones,
Then lay me to rest up there on the hill,
Out by the rocks and stones.
The spot was perfect,
Just as I hoped it would be,
And should you still have words to say,
You'll know where to find me.
