[Verse 1]
Jenny, Jenny, who can I turn to?
You give me somethin' I can hold on to
I know you think I'm like the others before
Who saw your name and number on the wall

[Chorus 1]
Jenny, I got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny, don't change your number

[Post-Chorus]
867-5309
867-5309
867-5309
867-5309

[Verse 2]
Jenny, Jenny, you're the girl for me
Oh, you don't know me, but you make me so happy
I tried to call you before, but I lost my nerve
I tried my imagination, but I was disturbed

[Chorus 1]
Jenny, I got your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny, don't change your number

[Post-Chorus]
867-5309
867-5309
867-5309
867-5309

[Bridge]
I got it (I got it), I got it
I got your number on the wall
I got it (I got it), I got it
For a good time, for a good time call

(Hey)

[Chorus 2]
Jenny, don't change your number
I need to make you mine
Jenny, I called your number

[Post-Chorus]
867-5309
867-5309
867-5309
867-5309

[Breakdown]
Jenny, Jenny, who can I turn to?
867-5309
For the price of a dime, I can always turn to you
867-5309

[Outro]
867-5309
867-5309
867-5309
867-5309
5309
867-5309 (5309)
867-5309 (5309)
867-5309

Tommy Tutone

First, let’s be clear that Tommy Tutone is the name of the band, not the frontman. It was originally known as Tommy and the Tu-Tones, the lead singer being Tommy Heath.

This band is most notorious for its song “867-5309/Jenny”, which plagues anyone lucky enough to have that local phone number to this very day.
