  C        G

When I was young and in my prime,

                           

I thought I never would marry;

        G                  D7

Fell in love with a pretty little girl

               G

And sure 'nuff we got married

                   D7       

Ring dum - ma ring dum der-re,

     

Prettiest girl I'd ever saw

 D7                G

 name was Devilish Mary

G

We were both young and foolish

Got in a powerful hurry;

We both agreed upon one word

        D7              G

And the wedding day was Thursday.

Ring dum - ma ring dum der-re

We hadn't been married but about three weeks

           D7          G

she got as mean as the devil,

                     D7

every time I looked cross-eyed

She knocked me in the head with the shovel.

G       D7

Ah Ring dum - ma ring dum der-re

Prettiest girl I'd ever saw

G

You washed my clothes in old soap suds

    A                    G

and the back full of stitches

    A                 G      

She let me know right at the start

     D7                G

That she's gonna where the britches.

We hadn't been married but about six months

                     A

she said we'd better be parted;

G

So she up and left with her Little ole duds

     D7

And down the road she started .

G

If I marry the second time

It'll be for the love not riches;

It'll be a little girl, about two foot high,

             D7   G

So she can't wear my britches!
