Cod Liver Oil
Ryans Fancy
3/4
[Intro]
Am Em Am Am G Am Em Am
[Verse]
Am
I'm a young married man and I'm tired of my life,
G
For lately I married an ailing young wife;
Am Em G
She_does_nothing all day only sit down and sigh,
Am Em Am
Sayin' I wish to the Lord that I only could die.
[Chorus]
Am
Oh Doctor, dear Doctor, Oh Doctor de Jong,
G
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong;
Am Em G
Im a-fraid of me life, I'll go down in the soil,
Am Em Am
If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
[Verse2]
Am
'Till a friend of me own came to see me one day,
G
And he told me my wife was just pining away;
Am Em G
But he afterwords told me that she would get strong,
Am Em Am
If I'd buy her a bottle from Doctor de Jong .
[Chorus]
Am
Oh Doctor, dear Doctor, Oh Doctor de Jong,
G
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong;
Am Em G
Im a-fraid of me life, I'll go down in the soil,
Am Em Am
If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
[Verse3]
Am
So I bought her a bottle, t'was just for a try,
G
And the way that she scoffed it, you'd swear she was dry;
Am Em G
I bought her another, it went just the same,
Am Em Am
'Till I knew she's got cod liver oil on the brain.
[Chorus]
Am
Oh Doctor, dear Doctor, Oh Doctor de Jong,
G
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong;
Am Em G
Im a-fraid of me life, I'll go down in the soil,
Am Em Am
If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
[Verse4]
Am
My house it resembles a big doctors shop,
G
With bottles and bottles from bottom to top;
Am Em G
And when in the morning the kettle does boil,
Am Em Am
You would swear it was singing out "cod liver oil".
[Chorus]
Am
Oh Doctor, dear Doctor, Oh Doctor de Jong,
G
Your cod liver oil is so pure and so strong;
Am Em G
Im a-fraid of me life, I'll go down in the soil,
Am Em Am
If me wife don't stop drinking your cod liver oil.
[Outro]
Am Em Am
