[Verse]
G C
My dad’s a pheasant-plucker, he's a very busy man,
G F
So I help him plucking pheasants, and I do the best I can.
G C
Sometimes he will go away and leave me on my own,
G F G
And so I’m left here sitting plucking all the pheasants all alone
[Chorus]
F
I'm not the pheasant-plucker,
C
I'm the pheasant-plucker's son,
G
And I'm only plucking-pheasants
F G
Till the pheasant-plucker comes.
[Verse]
G C
My husband likes to pluck with me, we have a lot of fun
G F
He tickles me with pheasant feathers when the plucking’s done;
G C
The laughing and the giggling helps to keep me fit and trim;
G F G
There’s nothing I would rather do than pheasant-pluck with him
[Chorus]
F
I'm not the pheasant-plucker,
C
I'm the pheasant-plucker's wife,
G
And when we pluck together
F G
It's a pheasant-plucking life!
[Verse]
G C
For the job of pheasant-plucking, my friend was born and bred,
G F
He likes to have a pheasant plucked before he goes to bed;
G C
I try and lend a helping hand, I gather up the feathers,
G F G
It's really all this pheasant-plucking keeps us here together.
[Chorus]
F
I'm not the pheasant-plucker,
C
I'm the pheasant-plucker's friend,
G
And if we weren’t plucking pheasants
F G
He would drive me round the bend
[Verse]
G C
I had a pal in Donegal, could pluck a frozen pheasant.
G F
But you have to pluck them fresh, or it’s really quite unpleasant,
G C
I'm not good at plucking pheasants, at the plucking I’ve no luck
G F G
Though some peasants find it pleasant, I would rather pluck a duck,
[Chorus]
F
I'm not the pheasant-plucker,
C
I'm the pheasant-plucker's mate,
G
I'm only plucking pheasants
F G
‘Cause the pheasant-plucker's late.
[Verse]
G C
My son’s a pheasant-plucker and he’s very good to me,
G F
He frequently invites me round to have a cup of tea.
G C
We have pheasant-plucking parties and play pheasant-plucking games,
G F G
Before we pluck the pheasants we will give them silly names.
[Chorus]
F
I’m not the pheasant-plucker,
C
I’m the pheasant-plucker’s mother,
G
And a mother plucking pheasants
F G
Is a good as any other.
[Verse]
G C
My cousin is a pheasant-plucker, he’s the best I’ve seen;
G F
I’m no good at plucking pheasants, I really am quite green;
G C
He could pluck a buffalo or even do a moose
G F G
While I have trouble getting down off eider duck or goose.
[Chorus]
F
I'm not the pheasant-plucker,
C
I'm the pheasant-plucker's cousin,
G
In the time it took to sing this song,
F G
He plucked a half a dozen.
