Chords for There Was A Old Women From Mobou--John Allan Cameron

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
There was an old woman from Mahbu, In Mahbu she did well,
She loved her [G] husband dearly, But another man twice as well,
[D] Which may write for little or little, And may write for lordly.
[G] _ [D] _ _ _ _ _ One day she went to the doctor, Some medicine for to find,
Then doctor [G] give me something, [A] That will make me [G] old man fine,
[D] Which may write for little or little, And may write for lordly. _ _
_ _ _ O feed him eggs and marabones, And make him sup them all,
Won't be so [G] very long after, [A] That he can't see [G] you at all,
[D] Which may write for little or little, And may write for lordly. _ _ _ _
_ So she fed him eggs and marabones, And [A] made him sup them [D] all,
Wasn't so [G] very long after, [A] That he couldn't [G] see the wall,
[D] Which may write for little or little, And may write for lordly. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [C#m] _ _ [D] _ _
_ _ [A] _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Say see I think I'll drown myself, But that might be a sin,
Say she I'll [G] go along, Would [A] you know how to [G] push her in,
[D] Which may write for little or little, And may write for lordly. _ _ _
_ _ _ The old woman she went back a bit, To get her running gold,
The old man's [G] wife she stepped [A] aside, And she went [G] down below,
Which [D] may write for little or little, And may write for lordly. _ _ _ _ _
_ She swam and swam and swam, And swam she came to the further brim,
The old man [G] got along, And [A] slowly pushed her [G] further in,
Which [D] may write for little or little, And may write for lordly. _ _ _ _ _
Oh eggs and eggs and marabones, Will make your old man blind,
But if you want [G] to drown him, You [A] must sweep the post [G] behind,
Which [D] may write for little or little, And may write for lordly.
