===========

Am
Papa came along and he shook the tree
Down came a bushel and a peck for me
F                                 Am
Papa shooed away all the honeybees
Papa dug a well and it flowed for me
Papa caught the motherlode fish for me
F                                 Am
Papa set a fire and it burned for me
Dm                        F
Papa put a skillet in the flame to fry
C                              G
Papa filled this little silver spoon of mine
F                                  Am
Papa said the Lord took a shine to me
Dm                        F
Papa said I gotta set the whole world free
C                G
Whole world free whole world free
/G#    Am                            RIFF2 to close
   Ooh papa said how it's gonna be
