Well, a tomcat's sitting on a pail of hay And a [F#m] bulldog is [D] sitting on the ground
I went and pinched the bulldog's tail And [F#m] they went [D] around and around and around
They went around and around It's the same old [G] tale that the [D] crow told
me Way down yonder by the sycamore tree
It's the same old [G] tale that the [D] crow told me Way down [A] yonder by the [D] sycamore tree
[G] [D] Well,
[G] [D] I had an old [G] cow and she [D] slobbered so bad
I spent all the money that I ever had I went and asked the doctor what to do about
it He said I'd have to teach the old cow how
to spit He said I'd have to teach the old cow how
to spit It's the same old [G] tale that the crow [D] told
me Way down [A] yonder by the [D] sycamore tree
