[Verse 1]
D Bm One day I went meanderin' to find myself a wife D E A A pretty miss to share my kiss and love me all my life D Bm The lonely bachelor's life I led began to get me down E E7 A I bought a ring and everything and went right into town
[Chorus]
D I went (meanderin', meanderin' A D A Looking far and wide for a girl to be my bride G D I went meanderin', meanderin') G D E7 A D A7 A Far from the old folks at home
[Verse 2]
D Bm I ran into a friend of mine while wandering down the street D E A He said he had a sister that he thought I ought to meet D Bm He took me home to meet her but she weighed two hundred ten E E7 A I shook my head and sadly said "oh here I go again"
