Anyone who's played on a record date 
Will remember Stage-Door-Jenny 
Well, I saw her last night and man, 
She looks like she wasn't gettin' any 
(Ah-h-h-h-h-h-h) 
Rock and roll kinda took it's toll 
When she shed her inhibitians 
Too many scenes in limousienes 
And dressing room intermissions 
 
She was the queen of 1964 
But the truth of the matter is 
Nobody wants her anymore 
There was a time she could've shown you how 
But nobody wants an overage groupie now 
 
When it came to a superstar 
Jenny was a braggart 
Spread it all around to everyone in town 
That she once had Mick Jagger 
(Oh-h-h-h-h-h-h) 
There's no doubt when the truth comes out 
True love will over conquer 
She didn't get Mick but she got a kick 
And a black eye from Bianca 
 
She was the queen of 1964 
What a pity she became a shadow of 
The girl she was before 
She passed her prime it seems a shame, somehow 
But nobody wants an overage groupie now 
 
De-da-da-da-da-de-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da-de-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da-de-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da-de-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da 
 
I'm afraid that the Morning Trade 
Had a sad obiturary 
There'll be no more Jenny at the door 
They took her to the cemetery 
(Ah-h-h-h-h-h-h) 
Just an autograph book and a stereo 
There was no one she was close ta 
She was found with her arms around 
An Elvis Presley poster 
 
She was the queen of 1964 
Tonight there'll be a moment of silence 
At the Trubadour 
There was a time she could've shown you how 
But nobody wants an overage groupie now 
But nobody wants an overage groupie now 
 
De-da-da-da-da-de-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da-de-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da 
Ba-ba-oom-a-moow-moow 
Ba-ba-oom-moow-moow 
Ba-ba-oom-a-moow-moow-moow-moow 
Ba-ba-oom-a-moow-moow 
Ba-ba-oom-moow-moow 
 
De-da-da-da-da-de-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da-de-da-da 
De-da-da-da-da 
Ba-ba-oom-a-moow-moow 
Ba-ba-oom-moow-moow 
Ba-ba-oom-a-moow-moow-moow-moow
