[Verse 1]
Like so many girls, Jenny Wren could sing
But a broken heart took her song away
Like the other girls, Jenny Wren took wing
She could see the world and its foolish ways

[Chorus]
How we spend our days casting love aside
Losing sight of life day by day

[Verse 2]
She saw poverty breaking up her home
Wounded warriors took her song away

[Duduk Solo]

[Verse 3]
But the day will come, Jenny Wren will sing
When this broken world mends its foolish ways

[Chorus]
Then we'll spend our days catching up on life
All because of you, Jenny Wren
You saw who we are, Jenny Wren

Sir James Paul McCartney, born June 18, 1942, is the single most successful music artist of all time. He found worldwide fame as the bass player and vocalist for The Beatles, and has continued to enjoy commercial success long after the band’s breakup.

His post-Beatles projects—the most lucrative of which was the band Wings, alongside then-wife Linda Eastman—have been met with mixed critical reception but he still retains a substantial public following, regularly conducting worldwide arena tours well into his later years.

His album sales with The Beatles, Wings and solo endeavours combined come to over 100 million, and his net worth was estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion circa 2018. He was knighted in 1997 and is known for his activism.
