Bishop Dance

G
Bishop danced with a thumbscrew 
woman
Did a double-quick back flip and 
C               G
slid across the floor
    C                       G
The Catholic traffic flowed freely 
'cross the river
                              F  
And fiddlestick fiddled quick out 
           C    G
the front door

G
Oh baby dumpling, mama's in the back
 tree
                  C          G
If the bow breaks mama might fall
G                    C
Little sad and only, baby don't be 
lonely
G                            C   
Mama knows 'rithmatic, knows how 
          G
to take a fall
G                            F   
Mama knows 'rithmatic, knows how 
          C    G
to take a fall

G                        C       
And the kids are crying 
                G
"Flapjacks, make'em fat, early in 
the mornin'
C                           G
Little Jack, grab your hat, hear the
 breakfast call
C                   G
Muskrat, bat a cat, kick him in the 
fireplace
        G
There's someone in the kitchen 
blowing "Dinah" on their horn
        G                     
There's someone in the kitchen 
          F                   C    G
blowing "Dinah" like they're born

     G
Well maverick daddy got one-eyed 
bridge
She glides like a monkey-mule 
Em             C
kicking on the back slide

Over hill, over hill, daddy don't 
you spill now
G                           
Papa got a switch stick, he's 
  C              G
pumping little Bill

Papa got a switch stick, he's 
  F              C    G
pumping little Bill

    G                   C         
And Billy, he's crying "Tomahawk, 
          G
tomahawk, daddy better duck now"
    C                            
The Mohawks, the Mohawks, they're 
       G
still out there in the woods
C                G
Monatuk, Ocanuk, runnin' through my 
dreams now
     G
With fire on their fingertips and 
indian screams
     G                            
With fire on their fingertips and 
F                C         G
feathers made of moonbeams

( G  C  G  C  G )

    G
Well early in the morning the 
cannoneer cried
   G
"I seen the sailor's warning in the 
western sky"
     C                         G
Well mountain man, if you can, cut 
me down a fir tree
C                                 
Branches full of candlesticks for 
F        G   C  G
baby and me

G                            
And my darling cried, she said 
   C
"honey, the weathervane
                 C/G
Lately it's been pointing the way to
 heaven
C                                 
Scatterbrains, scatterbrains, 
                G
watch out where you fall
C                                 
Champagne, champagne, a round for 
        G
all the old choir boys
        G
They're busting off the altar 
chasing Dinah through the hall
        G                    
They're bustin' off the altar 
         F                 C    G
