[VERSE 1]
[Am]Black Jack Davey come ridin' on back
A whistlin' loud and [Em]merry
[Am]Made the woods around him ring
And he charmed the heart of a l[G]a--[D]dy
Charmed the heart of a l[G]a--d[D]y
[VERSE 2]
[Am]How old are you, my pretty little miss
How old are you, my h[Em]oney?
[Am]She answered to him with a lovin' smile
"I'll be sixteen come S[G]un--d[D]ay
Be sixteen come S[G]un--d[D]ay"
[VERSE 3]
[Am]Come and go with me, my pretty little miss
Come and go with me, my [Em]honey
[Am]Take you where the grass grows green
You never will want for [G]mon--[D]ey
You never will want for [G]mon--[D]ey
[VERSE 4]
[Am]Pull off, pull off them high-heeled shoes
All made of Spanish l[Em]eather
[Am]Get behind me on my horse
And we'll ride off [G]to--g[D]ether
We'll both go off t[G]o--ge[D]ther
[VERSE 5]
[Am]Well she pulled off them high-heeled shoes
Made of Spanish Leath[Em]er
[Am]Got behind him on his horse
And they rode off t[G]o--[D]gether
They both rode off [G]to--[D]gether
[VERSE 6]
[Am]At night the boss came home
Inquiring about his l[Em]ady
[Am]The servant spoke before she thought
"She's been with Black Jack [G]Da--[D]vey
Rode off with Black Jack [G]Da--[D]vey"
[VERSE 7]
[Am]Well, saddle for me my coal-black stud
He's speedier than the [Em]gray
[Am]I rode all day and I'll ride all night
And I'll overtake my [G]la--[D]dy
I'll bring back my [G]la--d[D]y
[VERSE 8]
[Am]Well, he rode all night till the broad daylight
Till he came to a river [Em]ragin'
[Am]And there he spied his darlin' bride
In the arms of Black Jack [G]Da--[D]vey
Wrapped up with Black Jack [G]Da--[D]vey
[VERSE 9]
[Am]Pull off, pull off them long blue gloves
All made of the finest [Em]leather
[Am]Give to me your lily-white hand
And we'll go home [G]to--g[D]ether
We'll both go home [G]to-g[D]ether
[VERSE 10]
[Am]Well, she pulled off them long blue gloves
All made of the finest [Em]leather
[Am]Gave to him her lily-white hand
And said goodbye f[G]or--e[D]ver
Bid farewell f[G]or--ev[D]er
[VERSE 11]
[Am]Would you forsake your house and home
Would you forsake your [Em]baby?
[Am]Would you forsake your husband too
To go with Black Jack [G]Da--[D]vey
Ride off with Black Jack [G]Da--[D]vey?
[VERSE 12]
[Am]Well, I'll forsake my house and home
And I'll forsake my b[Em]aby
[Am]I'll forsake my husband too
For the love of Black Jack [G]Da--[D]vey
Love my Black Jack [G]Da--[D]vey
[VERSE 13]
[Am]Last night I slept in a feather bed
Between my husband and [Em]baby
[Am]Tonight I lay on the river banks
In the arms of Black Jack [G]Da--[D]vey
Love my Black Jack [G]Da--[D]vey
[Am]Black Jack Davey come ridin' on back
A whistlin' loud and [Em]merry
[Am]Made the woods around him ring
And he charmed the heart of a l[G]a--[D]dy
Charmed the heart of a l[G]a--d[D]y
[VERSE 2]

How old are you, my h[Em]oney?
[Am]She answered to him with a lovin' smile

Be sixteen come S[G]un--d[D]ay"
