Chewing Gun


		 
    D            A                           D 
    Mama sent me to the spring, she told me not to stay, 
                          A                                 D 
    I fell in love with a pretty little girl, and could not get away. 

(Chorus) 
               A        D 
Chawin' chewing gum, chewing chawin' gum, 
               A        D 
Chawin' chewing gum, chewing chawin' gum. 

     D               A                       D 
    First she give me peaches, next she give me pears, 
                    A                          D 
    next she give me fifty cents, kissed me on the stairs 


Chorus 

     D                    A                          D 
    Mommy don't 'low me to whistle, poppy don't 'low me to sing, 
                         A                       D 
    they don't want me to marry, I'll marry just the same. 


Chorus 

       D             A                             D 
    I wouldn't have a lawyer, I'll tell you the reason why, 
                 A                                D 
    every time he opens his mouth, he tells a great big lie. 


Chorus 

       D             A                             D                        
    I wouldn't have a doctor, I'll tell you the reason why, 
                      A                           D                               
    he rides all over the country, and makes the people die. 


Chorus 

        D           A                              D 
    I wouldn't have a farmer, I'll tell you the reason why, 
                     A                              D 
    because he has so plenty to eat, specially a pumpkin pie. 


Chorus 

       D              A                                   D                                        
    I took my girl to church last night, how do you reckon she done? 
                              A 
    She walked right up in the preacher's face, 
                         D                       
    and chewed her chewing gum.
