Intro Riff x2

Verse

A
Only dead folks get my jokes

A
Storm the castle and swim the moat

D
Across the world lives a big old goat

A
Who's got nine eyes and breathes nothing but smoke

E                   D
And he loves Lilly but Lilly loves me

E                       D
And Lilly loves Shelia but Shelia Loves me

A
So lets go out back and plant a family tree

A
We'll be as happy as a couple motherfuckers can be


Riff x2

Verse 2

A
Load your pistol to shoot the breeze

A
Go to the garden tell the birds and bees

D
Not to bother the girls or harass the boys

A
Busk for your breakfast baby make some noise

E                     D
We'll wake up grandpa wake up Jane

E                             D
Throw a couple rocks at their window pane

Dm                      A
If daddy gives me money Ill drink my milk

A
Got women to scare

A
Got a world to tilt


Outro

D
There's no one in the world but you for me

Riff
So lets go out back and plant a family tree
