 This pattern ensues throughout the entire song. Now to the entire tabulature:
There  was an old farmer who lived  on a rock,
 he sat  in the meadow, just shaking  his
fist  at the boys who were down  by the crick,
 their feet  in the water, their  hands on their
marbles  and playthings and hand  half-past four,
there  came a young lady, she  looked like a
pretty  young creature she sat  on the grass,
she  pulled up her dress, and she  showed them her
ruffles  and laces and fluffy  white duck,
she  said she was learning a new  way to
bring  up her children, so they  would not spit
while  the boys in the barnyard were shoveling
refuse,  and litter from yesterday's  hunt
while  the girl in the meadow was rubbing  her
eye  at the fellow, down  by the dock
he  looked like a man with a sizable
home  in the country, with a big  fence out front
if  he asked her politely, she'd show  him her
little  pet dog, who was subject  to fits
and  maybe she'd let him grab hold  of her
small,  tender hands with a movement  so quick
and  then she'd bend over and suck  on his
candy,  so tasty made of  butterscotch
and  then he'd spread whip cream all over  her
cookies  that she had left out  on her shelf
if  you think this is dirty
you  can go ____ yourself!
