[A] [D]
Many long years ago, I'll have you all [A] know, I yodeled a [D] sweet lullaby,
For my two little girls with pretty blonde curls, [A] And eyes as blue [D] as the sky.
But as you all know, sweet babies soon grow, [A] All joining their daddy [D] in song.
People came far and near to see and to hear, [A] As they sang, danced and glided [D] along.
The years soon rolled by, many times I did sigh, [A] I knew they would soon [D] fly away.
Living mother at home and daddy alone, [A] That's when I would [D] yodel and say,
[G] Hi ho [D] li li, yo [E] li li, [A] ye li [D] li yo, Hi [G] ho [D] li li, yo [A] li li, yo li [D] li.
We enjoyed the short years, there was sunshine and tears, We [A] wished them good [D] luck on their way.
Sheila rode home to tell, hey hey man, how I yelled, [A] I'll send thee a [D] granddad, they say.
[G] Don't go far away, cause we're [D] dreaming someday, [A] You all will rejoin the [D] great throng.
[G]
With a babe on my knee, see [D] how happy I'll be, [A] Singing granddad's yodeling [D] song.
I'll sing [G] to my pretty [D] baby, yo [E] li li, [A] ye li [D] li yo, [G] While all my [D] pretty babies, [A] Singing granddad's yodeling [D] song.
Only Carol is left and we wish her the best, [A] Very soon she will [D] leave us we fear.
Mama and dad all alone, by the fireside at home, [A] Just dreaming of those [D] yesteryears.
Now my heart's filled with joy, it's a big husky boy, [A] I hope they don't stay way [D] too long.
See how happy I'll be, with that babe on my knee, [A] Singing granddad's yodeling [D] song.
I'll sing to [G] my [D] pretty baby, [E] yo li li, [A] ye li [D] li yo, Go [G] to sleep my [D] pretty baby, I'm [A] singing granddad's [D] yodeling song.
