Ploughing A Troll

	  		
Verse 
      Dm 
There once was a farmer from old Flotsam town 
        N.C. 
Who was tired of sowing his seeds on the ground 
   N.C. 
He went for a wander and walked till the dawn 
       N.C. 
Till a wanton old she troll he stumbled upon 
 
      Dm          A           Dm 
And a hey-ho he's ploughing a troll! 
    Dm                     Am 
The gods only know how the key fits the hole 
 Bb                          Dm 
Around in the stinking great den they did roll 
      A                       Dm 
And a hey-ho he's ploughing a troll!
 

Verse 
    Dm 
The farmer he knew it was love at first sight 
     N.C. 
They ploughed through the morning and into the night 
     N.C. 
With teeth rotten black and a rank leather hide 
     N.C. 
This hideous creature his bestial bride 

      Dm          A           Dm 
And a hey-ho he's ploughing a troll! 
    Dm                     Am 
The gods only know how the key fits the hole 
  Bb                     Dm 
A cavernous cave for his puny old pole 
      A                       Dm 
And a hey-ho he's ploughing a troll!
 

Verse 
      Dm 
After time his excitement it started to droop 
   N.C. 
He groaned at her farts and her cold onion soup 
    N.C. 
The troll fixed his eye with a scowl made of stone 
             N.C. 
And when the guards came around all they found were his bones 

      Dm            A           Dm 
And a hey-ho he was ploughing a troll! 
    Dm                     Am 
The gods only know how the key fit the hole 
   Bb                  Dm 
No burial mound and no rest for his soul 
        A                         Dm 
Because hey-ho he was ploughing a troll!

The gods only know how the key fit the hole 
  Bb                       Dm 
A dirty auld tale from the bed to the bowl 
        A                         Dm 
Because hey-ho he was ploughing a troll!
