Key: G
Time: 2/4


 8   8   7    7  -7  -7  -8
 -4  -4  3    3  -2* -2* -3
Long be-fore the ris-ing sun


 8    -9   -9  -6   -7  7
-4    4    4    2  -2*  3
I’m forced to leave my bed


-8  8    8    7    7   -7  -7   -8
-3  -4  -4    3    3   -2* -2*  -3
To make the fires and bake the cake


 8  -9  -9  -6 -7     7
-4   4   4  2  -2*    3
And get the ta-ble spread


-8   8    8   7   7    -7  -8

Oh, stir the pud-ding, Peg-gy


 8   -9   -9    -6  -7  7
-4   4     4     2  -2* 3
And give those ducks a turn


-8   8    8    7    7  -7 7   -8
-3  -4    -4   3    3 -2* 3   -3
Be quick, be quick you la-zy girl


8   9  9   8    -8   7
-4 -5  -5  -4   -3   3
Or one or both will burn
