This [G]one starts [D]off...[G]
Hey, lay that pistol down, baby,

Pistol -packin' mama,
lay that pistol [G]down.[D][G]
[D]Mary [G]had a little lamb...
The doctors were [D]amazed.
Lay [G]that pistol down, baby,
lay that pistol [D]down.
Pistol -packin' mama,
lay that pistol [G]down.[D][G][D][G][D]
[G]
[D]Mary had[G] this little lamb,
she also had a [D]bear.
Everyone saw Mary's lamb,
but very few [G]saw her
[D]Lay [G]that pistol down, baby,
lay that pistol down
[D]Pistol -packin' mama
Lay that pistol [G]down[D][G]
Now Mary had this little bear,
too, which she was [D]so kind
Everywhere that Mary went,
you'd see her bear
[G]Lay that pistol down, baby,
lay that pistol [D]down
What a shocking look
Lay that [G]pistol down[D]

I [D]used [G]to chase the girls around,
I found them so con[D]trary
So now I chase the boys around,
Woops, [G]I'm a fairy
I'll lay that pistol down, Babe,
I'll lay that pistol [D]down
Mr. Beck and Mama,
I'm gonna lay that pistol
[G]down[D][G]
[D]Ohohohohohoho! [G]Plo[D]p Plop
[G]Plop
[D]Plop [G]Mighty like a rose
He wears his sister's clothes.
We don't know what to call him.
But we think he's one of those.

[G]Australian verse
[D]coming up here.[G][D][G]
Now there was a
young man from Sydney...
No, not that one.
[D]Wait a [G]minute, no.[D][G]
[D]Now there [G]was a young man from Sydney
who drank till he ruined [D]his kidney
He drank and drank and shrank and [G]shrank
but he had fun doing it, didn't he? [D]Oh,
[G]lay that pistol down, baby, lay that pistol down
[D]Pistol packin' mama,
lay that pistol [G]down[D][G]
[D]Hickory dic[G]kory dock,
three mice ran up the [D]clock
The clock [G]struck one
but the other two managed
[D]to get away[G][D]
[G]
[D]It's [G]the last pure verse
I'll [D]try in this [G]group,
[D]I'll tell you that.[G][D]
[G]Here's a twist [D]on that one.[G][D][G][D]
[G]Hickory dickory dock,
a mouse ran up [D]the clock,
the clock struck and the Electrical
Trade Workers Union
came out in sympathy.
[G]I'll [D]lay that [G]pistol down, baby,
lay that pistol [D]down
Pistol packin' mama,
lay that pistol [G]down
[D][G][D][G]
