Aint We Crazy

D                                 
Now I know a little ditty it's as 
  A
crazy as can be
The guy who wrote it said he wanted 
        D
it and handed it to me
                            G
I found I couldn't use it because it
 sounded blue
    D                              
And that's the very reason why I'm 
A             D
handing it to you


D                             
It's a song the alligators sing 
        A
while coming through the rye
As they serenade the elephants up in
D
 the trees so high
The iceman hums this ditty as he 
 G
shovels in the coal
    D                              
And the monkeys join the chorus up 
 A                   D
around the northern pole


D                        A
Ain't we crazy ain't we crazy
This is the way we pass the time 
  D
away
                         A
Ain't we crazy ain't we crazy
We're going to sing this song all 
         D
night today

D                                 
It was midnight on the ocean not a
  A
 streetcar was in sight
And the sun was shining brightly for
     D
 it rained all day that night
Twas a summer night in winter and 
     G
the rain was snowing fast

      D                         
And a barefoot boy with shoes on 
         A              D
stood a-sitting in the grass

D                                 
It was evening and the rising sun 
     A
was setting in the west
The little fishes in the trees were 
D
huddled in their nests
The rain was pouring down and the 
G
moon was shining bright
    D                            
And everything that you could see 
     A             D
was hidden out of sight


D                                 
While the organ peeled potatoes 
        A
lard was rendered by the choir
The sexton rung the dishrag someone 
 D
set the church on fire
Holy smoke The preacher shouted in 
        G
the rain he lost his hair
        D                        
Now his head resembles heaven for 
        A             D
there is no parting there

D                                 
The cows were making cowslips and 
     A
the bells were ringing wet
And the bumblebees were making bums 
     D
and smoking cigarettes
And a man slept in a stable and came
  G
 out a little hoarse
      D                          
So he hopped upon his golf sticks 
            A              D
and drove all around the course

D                        A
Ain't we crazy ain't we crazy
This is the way we pass the time 
  D
away
D                        A
Ain't we crazy ain't we crazy
We're goin' to sing this song all 
         D
night today

D                                 
It was midnight on the ocean not a
  A
 horsecar was in sight
As I stepped into the drugstore to 
 D
get myself a light
The man behind the counter was a 
 G
woman old and gray
    D                            
Who used to peddle shoestrings on 
      A              D
the road to Mandalay

D                                 
Good evening sir the woman said 
           A
and her eyes were bright with tears
As she put her head beneath her feet
      D
 and stood that way for years
Her children six were orphans except
G
 one tiny tot
    D                          
Who lived in a house across the 
          A            D
street above a vacant lot

D                        A
Ain't we crazy ain't we crazy
But this is the way we pass the time
    D
 away
D                        A
Ain't we crazy ain't we crazy
We're going to sing this song all 
         D
night today
