Lyrics

Jackie is a punk
Judy is a runt
They went down to the Mudd Club
And they both got drunk
Oh yeah
Whoa oh
Jackie is a bookie
Judy's taking loans
They both came up to New York
Just to see the Ramones
Oh yeah
Whoa oh
And oh, I don't know why she wrote that letter
Oh no, oh no
Oh I don't know why
We won't forget her, oh no
Jackie's playing hooky
Judy's playing pool
They both got caught for cutting
Got to go to summer school
Oh yeah
Whoa oh
Jackie's scalping tickets
Judy's getting harassed
They both got kicked outside
Didn't have a backstage pass
Oh yeah
Whoa oh
And oh, I don't why she wrote that letter
Oh no, oh no
Oh, I don't know why
Don't know what's on her mind
I don't know, no, I don't know
But I can't stand to see her crying
She's still crying, she ain't trying
She's going to get left behind
Nobody wants you, nobody wants you
Jackie is a punk
Judy is a runt
They went down to the Mudd Club
And they both got drunk
Oh yeah
Whoa oh
Jackie's playing hooky
Judy's playing pool
They both got caught for cutting
Got to go to summer school
Oh yeah
Whoa oh
And oh, I don't why she wrote that letter
Oh no, oh no
Oh, I don't know why
