LITTLE BOY BLUE


Cm
Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn
G7
The dish ran away with the spoon
Cm
Home again, home again Saturday morn
G7

He never gets up before noon

Cm G/B Eb/Bb F/A
Well, she used to render you legal and tender
Ab Eb/G F G
when you used to send her your promises, boy
Cm G/B Eb/Bb F/A
A diller, a dollar, unbutton your collar
Ab Eb/G F G
and come out and holler out all of your noise

So Little Boy Blue, come blow your top
and cut it right down to the quick
Don't sit home and cry on the Fourth of July
around now you're hittin' the bricks

So abracadabra, now she disappeared
Everything's Canada Dry
So watch your behavior and rattle your cage
with a bottle of Bourbon, goodbye

So Little Boy Blue lost little Bo Peep
She fell through a hole in the nest
Now ain't it peculiar that she's finally cooled
Your big wheels just like all of the rest

Whenever it rains, the umbrellas complain
They always get played for a chump
So mark it and strike it, she's history now
and you're hangin' out at the pump

Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn
The dish ran away with the spoon
Home again, home again Saturday morn
He never gets up before noon

Well, she used to render you legal and tender
when you used to send her your promises boy
A diller, a dollar, unbutton your collar
and come out and holler out all of your noise
