The Lumberjack Song
Terry Jones & Michael Palin
Oh, [C] I'm a lumberjack, and I'm okay
I [G7] sleep all night and I [C] work all day
Chorus:
He's a lumberjack, and he's okay
He [G7] sleeps all night and he [C] works all day
I cut down trees, I [F] eat my lunch
I [G] go to the lava[C]t'ry
On Wednesdays I go [F] shoppin'
And have [G] buttered scones for [C] tea
He cuts down trees. He [F] eats his lunch
He [G] goes to the lava[C]t'ry
On Wednesdays he goes [F] shopping
And has [G] buttered scones for [C] tea
Chorus
I cut down trees, I [F] skip and jump
I [G] like to press wild [C] flowers
I put on women's [F] clothing
And [G] hang around in [C] bars
He cuts down trees. He [F] skips and jumps
He [G] likes to press wild [C] flowers
He puts on women's [F] clothing
And [G] hangs around in [C] bars?!
Chorus:
I cut down trees, I [F] wear high heels
[G] Suspendies, and a [C] bra
I wish I'd been a [F] girlie,
Just [G] like my dear [C] Papa
He cuts down trees, he [F] wears high heels,
[G] Suspendies, and a [C] bra?!
pause... muttered insults
He's a lumberjack, and [G] he's o[C] kaaaaaaaaaaaay!
