Capo one 

G5
Poppa I know
          C5            D5
There's a frog on my toe
G5                   C5
Maybe I'll call him Jethro
G5
Maybe I'll grow up to be
     C5
As wise, good as he
        G5                      D5         G5
And maybe I'll come back after you're long gone

G5
Poppa I'm sure
       C5
The worms have eaten you now
        G5                                    D5              C5
And Jethro's been on some Frenchy's plate long ago
G5                        C5
Now I'm pretty sure that I listen to every word
       G5                 D5          G5
'cause I still hear you telling me still

            G5
"slap them boys when they're naughty
           C5
Make 'em crawl, make you haughty
            G5
Make you strong, little girl
              D5                C5
You paint them toes the reddish colour
         G5
And you know one day
               C5
You're gonna be bigger than a flea
               G5                 D5   C5           G5
You're gonna be bigger than that old poison ivy tree"

G5
Now I'm pretty sure
           C5
That I think you'd come and visit
        G5                     D5                      C5
And talk sometimes kind of like gadget
G5                            C5
A funny little chance like an Indian brave
      G5                                D5             C5
He said "we all grew fat when the white man came"
       G5                         C5
But one day girl you're gonna learn to make 'em crawl
              G5
Make 'em grow tall

But have the grace
       D5                C5
To be a lady with disgrace
       G5
And you fry them 'taters
         C5
And you make them with ladies 
G5       D5                C5     G5
Hands I know you're my pappy's baby
