Verse 1
This (G major) song is a warning to all
young ladies,
never to associate with the old man.
Well, an old man came courting me,
hating Durham (D major) down (D minor) (D major)
An (G major) old man came courting me,
me being young
An old man came (C major) courting me,
(G major) feign what he (D major) might
Remain (G major) mates when you're (C major) young,
wed (D major) an old man
(G major) Because he's got no falurum,
fa -li -lu -la (D major) -y u -rum
He's got no (G major) falurum, fa -li -lu -la -day
He's got no falur (C major) um,
he's (G major) lost his (D major) ding -do -rum
Amazed (G major) when you're (C major) younger
when (D major) an hour, (G major) man
When we went to church,
hey, Dingle, (D major) I'm down
When (G major) we went to church,
me being young
When we (C major) went to church,
(G major) he left me (D major) in the lurch I made
(G major) When you're (C major) young, (D major) wed an old (G major) man
Because he's got no falurum,
a little ayur (D major) um
He's (G major) got no falurum, a little all day
He's got no falur (C major) um,
he's (G major) lost his ding (D major) -do -rum
That (G major) means when you're (C major) younger
with (D major) an old (G major) man
When we (D major) went (G major) to bed,
hey, ding (D major) -do -rum -dow
When we (G major) went to bed, me being young
When we (C major) went to bed,
(G major) he lay (D major) (G major) like (D major) he was dead
(G major) Mates, when you're (C major) young,
never (D major) wed an old (G major) man
Because he's got no floor,
and a little eye (D major) -or -um
He's (G major) got no floor, and a little leg
Hey, he's got no ve (C major) lourum,
he's (G major) lost his ding (D major) -do -rum
And (G major) that's when you're (C major) young,
never (D major) wed a no (G major) bleman
So I threw me leg over him,
hey, ding (D major) -do -rum -dell
I flun (G major) g me leg over him, he beat me on
I threw me leg (C major) over him,
(G major) damned well,
near smothered (D major) him
(G major) I'm amazed when you're (C major) young,
never wed (D major) an owl (G major) -man
Because he's got no falurum,
fa -li -lu -la (D major) -y u -rum
He's got (G major) no falurum, fa -li -lu -la -day
He's got no falur (C major) um,
he's (G major) lost his ding (D major) -do -rum
I'm (G major) amazed when you're (C major) young,
never wed (D major) an owl (G major) -man
When he went to sleep,
hey, ding (D major) -do -rum -down
When (G major) he went to sleep, me being young,
When he (C major) went to sleep (G major) out of bed,
(D major) I did creep into (G major) the arm (C major) s
of a (D major) handsome young (G major) man.
And I found his fallow rump a little Iur (D major) em,
I (G major) found his fallow rump a little all day,
I found his fellow
(C major) and he (G major) got my ding -do -rum
So maids, when you're (C major) young,
have a (D major) way to know (G major) a man
