Rolling In The Hay Lyrics And Chords
Conal Gallen recorded this song in the key of F. They are the chords I have set this one to. I have also given the chords in the key of D. The Evelyn Marie Song was also recorded by Conal Gallen which is a different kind of song altogether, being about fisher men lost at sea.
[F]Rolling in the hay [Bb]rollong in the [F]hay,
It's [Bb]just a little [F]game that the [G]farmers love to [C]play
And [F]when the work is over at [Bb]the end of every [F]day
The [Bb]girls and boys make [F]lots of noise [C]rolling in the [F]hay.
I [F]was working in the meadow [Bb]one evening in Ju[F]ly
When a [Bb]pretty farmer's [F]daughter just [G]happen to pass [C]by
I [F]asked her to sit down a while to [Bb]see what she might [F]say
And [Bb]in no time at [F]all sure we were [C]rolling in the [F]hay.
Well Nancy she was chancy and she had a lovely farm
I'm thinking if I marry her it wouldn't do me any harm
She's not much good at cooking she can hardly make the tea
But boys is she not handy when she's rolling in the hay.
Rolling in the hay rollong in the hay,
It's just a little game that the farmers love to play
And when the work is over at the end of every day
The girls and boys make lots of noise rolling in the hay.
Big Ned More he's six foot four he has a daughter fair
She has a figure like an apple but she has a lovely pair
Of great big juicy oranges that she just bought today
She says she'll let me squeeze them when we're rolling in the hay.
Now farmer Joe has lots of dough he drives a brand new Jeep
They say that he's a little over friendly with his sheep
And when he comes a courting sure the girls all run away
But there's an awful smell of silage when he's rolling in the hay.
Rolling in the hay rollong in the hay,
It's just a little game that the farmers love to play
And when the work is over at the end of every day
The girls and boys make lots of noise rolling in the hay.
Well I have been a widower for fourty years or more
I'm not the man I used to be me joints are stiff and soar
But when the winter's over in the merry month of May
I still do get the urge to go out rolling in the hay
It's [Bb]just a little [F]game that the [G]farmers love to [C]play
And [F]when the work is over at [Bb]the end of every [F]day
The [Bb]girls and boys make [F]lots of noise [C]rolling in the [F]hay.
