Capo one 
GPoppa I know
ThereC's a froDg on my toe
GMaybe I'll Ccall him Jethro
GMaybe I'll grow up to be
As wiCse, good as he
And maybGe I'll come bDack aGfter you're long gone
GPoppa I'm sure
The worCms have eaten you now
And JethGro's been on some DFrenchy's platCe long ago
GNow I'm prCetty sure that I listen to every word
'cGause I still Dhear yGou telling me still
"slap tGhem boys when they're naughty
Make 'Cem crawl, make you haughty
Make yoGu strong, little girl
You Dpaint tChem toes the reddish colour
And Gyou know one day
You'rCe gonna be bigger than a flea
You'rGe gonna Dbe bCigger tGhan that old poison ivy tree"
GNow I'm pretty sure
That I thinCk you'd come and visit
And talk Gsometimes kDind of like gadgetC  
GA funny little Cchance like an Indian brave
He saiGd "we all grew fat DwheCn the white man came"
But one Gday gCirl you're gonna learn to make 'em crawl
Make G'em grow tall
But have the grace
To Dbe a lady wCith disgrace
And you Gfry them 'taters
And Cyou make them with ladies 
GHanDds I knCow youG're my pappy's baby
