Verse 1
This (G major) one starts off... (D major) (G major)
Hey, lay that pistol down, baby,
lay that (D major) pistol down.
Pistol -packin' mama,
lay that pistol (G major) down. (D major) (G major)
(D major) Mary (G major) had a little lamb...
The doctors were amazed. (D major)
Lay (G major) that pistol down, baby,
lay that pistol (D major) down.
Pistol -packin' mama,
lay that pistol (G major) down. (D major) (G major) (D major) (G major) (D major)
(G major)
(D major) Mary (G major) had this little lamb,
she also had a (D major) bear.
Everyone saw Mary's lamb,
but very few (G major) saw her
Lay (D major) (G major) that pistol down, baby,
lay that pistol down
(D major) Pistol -packin' mama
Lay that pistol down (G major) (D major) (G major)
Now Mary had this little bear,
too, which she was (D major) so kind
Everywhere that Mary went,
you'd see her bear
Lay that (G major) pistol down, baby,
lay that pistol (D major) down
What a shocking look
Lay that pistol down (G major) (D major)
(G major) Whoooooaaaa! (D major) (G major) Plink plink plink plink (D major) (G major)
I (D major) used (G major) to chase the girls around,
I found them so con (D major) trary
So now I chase the boys around,
Woops, (G major) I'm a fairy
I'll lay that pistol down, Babe,
I'll lay that pistol (D major) down
Mr. Beck and Mama,
I'm gonna lay that pistol
(G major) down (D major) (G major)
(D major) Ohohohohohoho! (G major) Plop Plop (D major)
(G major) Plop
(D major) Plop (G major) Mighty like a rose
He wears his sister's clothes.
We don't know what to call him.
But we think he's one of those.
(D major)
(G major) (D major) (G major) (D major) (G major) (D major)
(G major) Australian verse
(D major) coming up here. (G major) (D major) (G major)
Now there was a
young man from Sydney...
No, not that one.
(D major) Wait a minute, no. (G major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) Now there (G major) was a young man from Sydney
who drank till he ruined (D major) his kidney
He drank and drank and shrank and (G major) shrank
but he had fun doing it, didn't he? (D major) Oh,
(G major) lay that pistol down, baby, lay that pistol down
(D major) Pistol packin' mama,
lay that pistol down (G major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) Hickory (G major) dickory dock,
three mice ran up the (D major) clock
The clock (G major) struck one
but the other two managed
to get away (D major) (G major) (D major)
(G major)
(D major) It's (G major) the last pure verse
I'll (D major) try in this (G major) group,
I'll tell you that. (D major) (G major) (D major)
(G major) Here's a twist on that one. (D major) (G major) (D major) (G major) (D major)
(G major) Hickory dickory dock,
a mouse ran up (D major) the clock,
the clock struck and the Electrical
Trade Workers Union
came out in sympathy.
(G major) I'll (D major) lay that (G major) pistol down, baby,
lay that pistol (D major) down
Pistol packin' mama,
lay that pistol (G major) down
(D major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
