[Verse 1]
Jennifer Tomkins
Was born on a Sunday
Her daddy got drunk
And left home on a Monday
Her mother, she died young
When Jenny was seven
And Jennifer Tomkins
Went to work at eleven
(Work at eleven)

[Chorus]
Oh, I swear, just ain’t fair
Trouble, trouble everywhere
Oh, Lord, come on down
Got to spread some love around
I swear, just ain’t fair
Trouble, trouble everywhere
Oh, Lord, come on down
Got to spread somе love around

[Verse 2]
Jenny, she grеw up
To be quite a lady
And then she met Tony
Whose background was shady
She gave him her love
But just like her mother
He left her one day
And ran off with another
(Ran off with another)

[Chorus]
Oh, I swear, just ain’t fair
Trouble, trouble everywhere
Oh, Lord, come on down
Got to spread some love around
(Oh, Lord, come on down)
(Got to spread some love around)
(Look, look everywhere)
(Ain’t no one that seems to care)

[Chorus]
I swear, just ain’t fair
Trouble, trouble everywhere
Oh, Lord, come on down
Got to spread some love around
Oh, Lord, come on down
Ain’t no love that can be found
I swear, just ain’t fair
Trouble, trouble everywhere

[Outro]
Oh, Lord, come on down
Ain’t no love that can be found
I swear, just ain’t fair
Trouble, trouble everywhere
Oh, Lord, come on down
Ain’t no love that can be found…
