She milked the cow nor all the glory rare | D |
Of that October morning could compare | D |
With that sweet sylvan scene the grace the charm | E |
The rhythmic movement of her dimpled arm | E |
Would make a poor bloke feel just anyhow | C |
She milked the cow | C |

She milked the cow 'Twas at South Sassafras | F |
Which is a cruel word to rhyme alas | F |
And all who gazed thereon decalred with force | G |
It was sublime except the cow of course | G |
Who wore a patient frown upn her brow | C |
She milked the cow | C |

She milked the cow at least she said she did | H |
There was the milk in proof and God forbid | H |

Who said but still what does it matter now | C |
She milked the cow | C |
