      The Assumption Song

by the Arrogant Worms (Youtube)

Note: There's a few versions of this on here but i just think this sounds more accurate.
Maybe I was listening to a different version? Who knows. 
Anyways, I just play it like this and use a few fill notes to step up and down as required.
Check out the youtube video for the strumming. Very simple, fun song to play.

C                                     G
There was an old farmer who lived on a rock,

he sat in the meadow, just shaking his 
C                                     G
fist at the boys who were down by the crick,
 
their feet in the water, their hands on their

C                                        G
marbles and playthings and at half-past four,
 
there came a young lady, she looked like a 
C                                     G
pretty young creature she sat on the grass,
 
she pulled up her dress, and she showed them her

C                                  G
ruffles and laces and white fluffy duck,
 
she said she was learning a new way to
C                                        G
bring up her children, so they would not spit
 
while the boys in the barnyard were shovelling

C                                   G
refuse, and litter from yesterday's hunt
 
while the girl in the meadow was rubbing her
C                              G
eye at the fellow, down by the dock
 
he looked like a man with a sizable

C                                         G
home in the country, with a big fence out front
 
if he asked her politely, she'd show him her
C                                  G
little pet dog, who was subject to fits
 
and maybe she'd let him grab hold of her

C                                     G
small, tender hands with a movement so quick
 
and then she'd bend over and suck on his
C                              G
candy, so tasty made of butterscotch
 
and then he'd spread whip cream all over her

C                                     G
cookies that she had left out on her shelf
 
if you think this is dirty
                   C
you can go @!#$ yourself!
