If a cus-tom-tail-ored vet
1    -1  2   1    2    1    2
Asks me out for some-thing wet,
1    -1   2  -1  2   -2  3
When the vet be-gins to pet, 
-3 -4   4  -4
I cry "Hoo-ray!"
-3  -4   4  4    4    4  4        
But I'm al-ways true to you,

Dar-lin', in my fash-ion,

1     -1    2   1    2  1  2
I’ve been asked to have a meal
1 -1  2  1   2   1    2
By a big ty-coon in steel,

Ac-cept I may.

There’s an oil man known as Tex
3   -2   2   3  3   3   3
Who is keen to give me checks
1    1    -3    3* -3
And his checks, I fear
-3    -4   4  -4  4   -4  -5
Mean that Tex is here to stay
-3  -4   4  4     4   4  4

1   -1    2     -1   2   -2    3
Mis-ter Thorne once cor-nered corn
-3   -4    4   -4
And that ain’t hay
