| Notes: | A novelty song popularized in the 1940s, based on a playfully garbled version of the phrase "Mares eat oats and does eat oats." Great for light-hearted group singing or warm-up fun. |
And liddle lamzy Adimdivey,
A Em7kiddley divey A7too, wouldn't Dyou?
A7Yes!
DMairzy doats and dozy doats
And liddle lamzy Adimdivey,
A Em7kiddley divey A7too, wouldn't Dyou?
If the Am7words sound D7queer
And Am7funny to your D7ear,
A Glittle bit jumbled and jivey,
Sing "Bm7Mares eat E7oats and Bm7does eat E7oats
And Alittle Em7lambs eat A7ivy.
A Em7kid will eat ivy A7too wouldn't Dyou?"
Oh!
DMairzy doats and dozy doats
And liddle lamzy Adimdivey,
A Em7kiddley divey A7too, wouldn't Dyou?

DMairzy doats and dozy doats
And liddle lamzy Adimdivey,
A Em7kiddley divey A7too, wouldn't Dyou?
A Em7kiddley divey A7too, wouldn't Dyou?
