There was an old farmer who lived on a rock
                                 <span>C
He sat in the meadow just shaking his
                                      <span>G
Fist at some boys who were down by the crick

Their feet in the water, their hands on their
<span>C                                       <span>G
Marbles and play things at a half passed four

There came a young lady who looked like a
<span>C
Pretty, young preacher
                  <span>G
She sat on the grass, she pulled up her dress

And she showed them her
<span>C                                  <span>G
Ruffles, and laces and white fluffy duck

She said she was learning a new way to
<span>C                                       <span>G
Bring up her children, so they would not spit
While the boys in the barnyard were shoveling
<span>C                                  <span>G
Refuse, and litter from yesterday's hunt

While the girl in the meadow was rubbing her
<span>C                              <span>G
Eyes at the fellow, down by the dock

He looked like a man with a sizable
<span>C                                        <span>G
Home in the country, with a big fence out front

If he asked her politely, she'd show him her
<span>C                                 <span>G
Little pet dog, who was subject to fits

And maybe she'd let him grab hold of her
<span>C                                     <span>G
Small, tender hands with a movement so quick

And then she'd bend over and suck on his
<span>C                             <span>G
Candy, so tasty made of butterscotch

And then he'd spread whip cream all over her
<span>C                                   <span>G
Cookies that she had left out on her shelf

If you think this is dirty
               <span>C
