Lyrics
How 'ya gonna keep 'em, (F7)down on the farm,
After they've seen
(Faug)(Bb)Paree? (Dbdim)(Bb)How 'ya gonna keep 'em (Db7)away (C7)from (G#dim)(F)Broadway;
(C7)Jazzin' a'roun', And (F)paintin' the town?
(Bb)How 'ya gonna keep 'em (Bbdim)(F7)away from harm?
That's a (D)mystery;
(Bb7)They'll never want to see a rake or plow,
(Eb)And who the deuce can (C7)parleyvous a cow.
(Bb)How 'ya gonna keep 'em (F7)down on the farm,
(Cm7)After they've seen
(Bb)Paree? (F7)(Bb)How 'ya gonna keep 'em,
(F7)down on the farm,
After they've seen
(Faug)(Bb)Paree? (Dbdim)(Bb)How 'ya gonna keep 'em (Db7)away (C7)from (G#dim)(F)Broadway;
(C7)Jazzin' a'roun', And (F)paintin' the town?
(Bb)How 'ya gonna keep 'em (Bbdim)(F7)away from harm?
That's a (D)mystery;
(Bb7)Imagine Reuben when he meets his pa,
(Eb)He'll kiss his cheek and holler (C7)"oolala!"
(Bb)How 'ya gonna keep 'em (F7)down on the farm,
(Cm7)After they've seen
(Bb)Paree? (F7)(Bb)ree?
