Twice Daily

F  C  F


[Verse 1]
     F
When I was a lad I was so glad
                 C
To go out in the daytime
C
With me fork, a bottle and a cork
                   F
To help out in the haytime
F
Tossin' hay one fine day
                 C
I met young Lucy Bailey
      C
And I said my dear "Are you often 
here"
                         F
She said "Yes sir, twice daily"

[Verse 2]
        F
Well we had such fun in the summer 
sun
            C
Lucy was so thrillin'
   C
So sweet and pure but I wasn't sure
                 F
If that girl was willin'
  F
Until one day among the hay
                C
We were working gaily
         C
When she up's and slips and her 
garters ripped
                       F
And I went there twice daily

        F
Did the rum do dee, did de rum do da
                     C
Did the rum da do do randy
        C
Did the rye do dee, did the rye do 
da
                          F
Did the rye do dee, twice daily


[Verse 3]
     F
Well Lucy's dad he was very mad
                        C
He chased me 'round the haybarn
   C
He said "My son, now you've had your
 fun
                     F
The time has come to pay now"
     F
"The girl you'll wed", the old man 
said
                        C
As he waved his shotgun gaily
        C
"If you don't", he says, "where I'll
 put the lead
                          F
You won't sit there twice daily"

[Verse 4]
       F
So the very next day in the month of
 May
                C
We held the ceremony
       C
And we paid off the vicar with a 
gallon of liquor
                           F
And we rode to church on a pony
   F
To Lucy's joy we had a boy
              C
What a little darlin'
     C
He's round and fat as a Cheshire cat
              F
As perky as a starlin'


[Chorus]
        F
Did the rum do dee, did de rum do da
                     C
Did the rum da do do randy
        C
Did the rye do dee, did the rye do 
da
                          F
Did the rye do dee, twice daily


[Verse 5]
     F
Well now we're old, our story's told
              C
Forty years together
        C
Tho' we often stray where we tossed 
the hay
                        F
In that old time summer weather
      F
Well, kids we've got ten or more
                 C
We goes on quite gaily
         C
Tho' I'm old and grey when I've got 
me way
                       F
I still go there twice daily


[Chorus]
        F
Did the rum do dee, did de rum do da
                     C
Did the rum da do do randy
        C
Did the rye do dee, did the rye do 
da
                          F
Did the rye do dee, twice daily
