(John Stewart/Bob Shane/Nick Reynolds)
Well, I'm not gonna brag but I been courtin' all my life. They consider me a roguish lad, especially for my size.
[Chorus:]
And with you, and with you, and with you, Genny Glenn.
I'll take you down to Glasgow Town and dance you home again. [Repeat]
Now, Genny would come a-callin' while there was still some light.
I'd sit her down with a pull or two. She'd stay most all the night.
I'd put my arm around her and then I'd bar the door.
There'd be laughin' and some squealin' like you never heard before.
[Chorus]
Well, a lot of girls would-a liked me and they're pretty, heaven knows.
But there's something about my Genny that keeps me on my toes.
She'd tickle me and squeeze me till I could hardly moan.
Then she'd light out a-runnin' and I'd chase her half way home.
[Chorus]
Well, she wouldn't come to see me for about a week or more.
She'd do it just to tease me 'cause she knew it made me sore.
Then I'd do whiskey drinkin' till the jug was getting dry.
I'd go lookin' for my Genny with a mean look in my eye.
[Chorus]

The Kingston Trio è un gruppo musicale statunitense formatosi nel 1957 a San Francisco, California. Composto da Dave Guard (voce e chitarra), Bob Shane (voce e banjo) e Nick Reynolds (voce e chitarra), il trio ha contribuito in modo significativo al folk revival degli anni '50 e '60. Il loro stile musicale era caratterizzato da arrangiamenti armonici raffinati, un mix di canzoni tradizionali folk americane e brani originali, spesso con testi ironici o satirici. Il successo del Kingston Trio fu enorme: hanno venduto milioni di dischi, hanno avuto numerosi successi in classifica, tra cui "Tom Dooley", "M-T-M" e "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?", e sono stati ospiti di programmi televisivi popolari come "The Ed Sullivan Show". Il loro impatto sul panorama musicale americano fu notevole, contribuendo a diffondere la musica folk a un pubblico più ampio. Dopo diversi cambiamenti nella formazione nel corso degli anni, il gruppo si è sciolto nel 1967. Bob Shane ha continuato a esibirsi con una nuova formazione del Kingston Trio fino alla sua morte nel 2020.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
