Verse 1

                    
The good man he came home one night

                          (riff 1)
The good man, home came he

                 
There he spied an old saddle horse

                        
Where no horse should there be

                                   
"It's a cow, it's a cow", cried the good man's wife

                         
"A cow, just a cow, can't you see?"

                            
Far have I ridden, and much I've seen

                                
But a saddle on a cow there's never been 

(Break)
                  (x2) 

Verse 2
 
                    
The good man he came home one night

                             
The good man, home came he

                
There he spied a powdered wig

                      
Where no wig should there be

                                 
It's a hen, it's a hen, cried the good man's wife

                            
A hen, just a hen, can't you see?

                            
Far have I ridden, and much I've seen

                              
But powder on a hen there's never been


(Break)
                  (x2)    


Verse 3 (Played quitely)
                    
The good man he came home one night
                          
The good man, home came he
                
There he spied a riding coat
                       
Where no coat should there be
                                   
It's sheets, just sheets, cried the good man's wife
                          
Sheets, just sheets, can't you see?
                            
Far have I ridden, and much I've seen
                                 
But buttons on a sheet there's never been

(Break)
                  (x2)
          
                    

Verse 4
                        
The good man climbed the stairs that night
                              
When the good man home came he
                
There he spied a handsome man
                       
Where no man should there be
                                       
It's the maid, it's the maid, cried the good man's wife
                       
The milking maid, can't you see?
                            
Far have I ridden, and much I've seen
                                
But a beard on a maid there's never been

(Break)
                  (x2)

Verse 5 (Technically not the chords - but still sounds okay)
                    
The good man he came home one night
                       
The good man, home came he
                 
There he spied an old saddle horse
                         
Where no horse should there be
                                 
It's a cow, it's a cow, cried the good man's wife
                            
A cow, just a cow, can't you see?
                            
Far have I ridden, and much I've seen
                                
But a saddle on a cow there's never been
                            
Far have I ridden, and much I've seen
                                
But a saddle on a cow there's never been
