Пробираясь до калитки Полем, вдоль межи, Дженни вымокла до нитки Вечером во ржи. Очень холодно девчонке, Бьёт девчонку дрожь: Замочила все юбчонки, Идя через рожь. Если кто-то звал кого-то Сквозь густую рожь И кого-то обнял кто-то, Что с него возьмёш? И какая нам забота, Если у межи Целовался с кем-то кто-то Вечером во ржи!
