I knew a lady who

   lived in Duluth

She got bit by a gog with

   a rabid tooth

        Dm
But she went to her grave

And she flew away howling

   at the yellow moon

Now the people cry

And they look for a dry

   place to call their home

And try to find some

             Bb
   place to rest their bones

While the angels
  and the devils

           Dm
Fight to claim them
    for their own

 Where do bad folks go
