The Darby Ram

VERSE 1
-4 6 6 6 -6 6 5 -4
As I went up to Darby’s town
6 6 6 -7 -8
T’see what I could see
8 8 8 8 8 -8 -7 6
I saw the biggest, fattest ram
6 -6 -6 -6 6 5
(That)was ever fed on hay
6 6 6 6 5 -4
Filla my Darby ram, sir
6 6 6 -7 -8
Filla my ram-ber-ree
-8 8 8 8 8 -8 7 6
It was the biggest, fattest ram
6 -6 -6 -6 6 5
That ever I did see

VERSE 2
The wool growed on this rams back
Went soarin’ to th sky
The ravens built their nest there
For I heered the young ones cry
Fill my Darby ram, sir
Fill my ram-ber-ree
It was th biggest, fattest ram
That ever I did see

VERSE 3
Th horns growed on this ram, sir
Nearly reached th moon
A man went up in Aprile
An’ never got back till June
Filla my Darby ram, sir
Filla my ram-ber-ree
It was the biggest, fattest ram
That ever I did see

VERSE 4
The wool growed on this rams belly
Went draggin’ to th ground
The devils grandma shaved ’em off
And made herself a gown
Filla my Darby ram, sir
Filla my ram-ber-ree
It was the biggest, fattest ram
That ever I did see
VERSE 5
The man that butchered this ram, sir
Got drowned in the blood
An’ those that were a standing ’round
Got washed away in the flood
Filla my Darby ram, sir
Filla my ram-ber-ree
It was the biggest, fattest ram
That ever I did see
VERSE 6
The man that owned this ram, sir
Must’a been mighty rich
Or else the man that made this song
Was a liein’ 5&9′-09&%$
