TITLE: Sipping Cider through a Straw
Lyrics and Chords


The prettiest girl (the prettiest girl)
I ever saw (I ever saw)
Was sippin' ci- (was sippin' ci-)
Der through a straw (der through a straw)
The prettiest girl I ever saw
Was sippin' cider through a straw

/ G - / / D - / G - / - - C - / D - G - /

I said to her, "What ya doin' that fer"
A sippin' cider through a straw"...

First cheek to cheek, then jaw to jaw
We both sipped cider through a straw...

Every now and then, that straw would slip
And we'd sip cider lip to lip...

That's how I got my mother in law
By sippin' cider through a straw...

Now forty-nine kids, all call me Pa
From sippin' cider through a straw...

The moral of this sad, sad, joke
Is don't sip cider, sip a Coke...
