[C#]
In Naughty Muntown, Not a soul would look up, Not a soul [C#] would look up, Not a soul would look down.
Not a soul would look [D#m] up, Not a soul would look [C#m] down.
To show me the way to fair [D#] Naughty Muntown, I rode a grey horse that is called [C#m] a grey mare.
Grey mane and grey [C#] tail, on her grey mane and grey tail, green stripe down her back.
There want to [G#] head on her be what was called black.
She stood so still, she threw me to the dirt.
She tore at my hide [C#] and bruised my shirt.
[C#m] From side to side [C#]
I mounted [C#m] again, and on my ten toes I rode over the plain.
Met the king and the queen, and a company more, all walking behind [C#] and riding before.
[C#] Come a stark naked drummer, a beating [C#m] a drum, with his hands in his bosom [C#] come marching their long.
I bought me a quart, to drive gladness away, and to stifle the [G#] dust for it rained the [C#] whole day.
[C#m]
Set down on a hard, hot cold frozen stone, ten thousand stood around me and yet I was alone.
Took my [C#] heart in my hands, for to keep my head [G#] warm, ten [G#] thousand got drowned, it that
never [C#] was born.
In Naughty Muntown, Not a soul would look up, Not a soul [C#] would look up, Not a soul would look down.
Not a soul would look [D#m] up, Not a soul would look [C#m] down.
To show me the way to fair [D#] Naughty Muntown, I rode a grey horse that is called [C#m] a grey mare.
Grey mane and grey [C#] tail, on her grey mane and grey tail, green stripe down her back.
There want to [G#] head on her be what was called black.
She stood so still, she threw me to the dirt.
She tore at my hide [C#] and bruised my shirt.
