Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]As I was a -walk[A]in' down by [D]the sea[A]side,

He measured as long
as a [G]great schooner stick.
I [A]looked, and by gum,
it was old Moby [D]Dick.
Now what do you think I made of his head?
[A]As large an oven as eve[D]r
baked bread
Fruitcake and cookies,
oh [G]just take your pick
Don't you [A]think I did well
with old Moby [D]Dick?
Now what do you think I
made of his eye[A]s?
The fanciest platters as
ever [D]baked pies
Blueberry custard, oh,
[G]just take your pick
Don't you [A]think I did well
with old Moby [D]Dick?
Now what do you think I made of his [A]tail?
As fine a mainsail as ever sought [D]sail
Topsail or spinnaker,
[G]just take your pick
[D]Don't you [A]think I did well
with old Moby Dick[D]?
Now what do you think I made of his back[A]?
A big top for a circus,
and [D]all colored black,
Water repellent, all shiny [G]and slick.
Don't you [A]think I did well
with old Moby Dick[D]?
Now what do you think I
made of his rib[A]s?
Forty new cradles and [D]fifty new cribs,
For twins or quintuplets,
oh, [G]just take your pick
Don't you [A]think I did well
with old Moby Dick[D]?
Now what did I make
of his old back[A]bone?
A place for a king, a shiny [D]white [A]throne
[D]I labored for years,
t 'was [G]not finished [Gm]quick
[G]Don't you [A]think I did well
with old Moby Dick[D]?
Now what do you think I made of his [A]ma?
As fine a blasphemous as ever [D]you saw
Gas, coal or wood,
oh [G]just take your pick
Don't you [A]think I did well
with old Moby Dick[D]?
