Gather in the Mushrooms |
| CLucy went down on a farm, tried to milk a cow, |
| Though she tried she couldn't get the G7hang of it someChow. |
| The farmer looked at Lucy and murmured with a frown, |
| "Well oh C-tacetyou just hang on tightly, gal, and she'll jump up and down." |
|
| Chorus: |
| Oh, Cgather in the mushrooms, put 'em in a pot, |
| Pop 'em in the oven an G7serve 'em piping Cho-Dot. |
|
| To Dmake herself more beautiful she thought she'd bathe in milk, |
| She said, "I'll have a bathful," to her A7milkman Jackie DWilke. |
| He said, "Do you want it pasturized before I pour it in?" |
| She D-tacetsaid, "No, I'll be happy if it comes up to my chin." |
|
| Chorus |
|
| The Efarmer called at Lucy one dark and stormy night, |
| She said, "You are too old for me beB7cause your hair is Ewhite." |
| He looked into her eyes and then he knew he'd have to tell her, |
| "There's E-tacetsnow upon the roof but there's a fire in the cellar!" |
|
| Chorus |
|
| She Ftook him in the kitchen, she was his turtle dove, |
| And then she started cooking C7dumplings on the Fstove. |
| She wore a low cut dress, oh it was as green as clover, |
| He F-tacetjumped with glee 'cause he could see her dumplings boiling over. |
|
| Chorus |
|
| She Gsaid, "You give me half a crown I will read your palm," |
| And then she saw his love line went D7half way up his Garm. |
| So now she's changed her prices, although she's just as willing, |
| It's G-tacetbig fat men at two pound ten and little boys a shilling. |
|
| Oh, Ggather in the mushrooms, put 'em in a pot, |
| Pop 'em in the oven an D7serve 'em piping Ghot, |
| We're gonna Ggather in the mushrooms, put 'em in a pot, |
| Pop 'em in the oven and D7serve them pi-ping Gho-D7o-Got. |
