          A                 D 

  Cho...	Big Joe Mufferaw paddled up the Madawa 

  	A                           E 

  	All the way from Ottawa in just one day

                   A                        D

  	Hey hey, on the river Ottawa the best man we ever saw

              A                    E          A

  	Was big Joe Mufferaw the old folks say

                                                   E          A 

  	Come and listen & I'll tell you what the old folks say

  

  

  A                            D

  Well they say big Joe had an old pet frog

  A                         E

  Bigger than a horse & he barked like a dog

          A                           D 

  And the only thing quicker than a train upon a track

      E                       D           A

  Was Big Joe ridin' on that bull frog's back

  E         A               D                      E                      A

  Heave hi heave hi ho the best man in Ottawa was Mufferaw Joe, Mufferaw Joe

  

  

  Well they say Big Joe used to get real wet

  From cuttin down timber & working up a sweat

  And everyone'll tell ya 'round Carleton Place

  The Mississippi dripped off of Big Joe's face

  Heave hi heave hi ho the best man in Ottawa was Mufferaw Joe, Mufferaw Joe

  

  Now Joe had to portage from Gatineau down

  To see a little girl he had in Kemptville town

  Well he was back & forth so many times to see that gal

  That the path he wore became the Rideau Canal

  Heave hi heave hi ho the best man in Ottawa was Mufferaw Joe, Mufferaw Joe

  

  

  Cho...

  

  

  Well they say Big Joe put out a forest fire

  Half way between Renfrew & old Arnprior

  He was fifty miles away down around Smith Falls

  When he drownded out the fire with five spitballs

  Heave hi heave hi ho the best man in Ottawa was Mufferaw Joe, Mufferaw Joe

  

  Well he jumped into Calagogie Lake real fast

  And he swam both ways to catch a cross eyed bass

  But he threw it on the ground & said I can't eat that

  And then he covered it over with Mount St. Pat

  Heave hi heave hi ho the best man in Ottawa was Mufferaw Joe, Mufferaw Joe

  

  Well they say Big Joe drank a bucket of Gin

  Then he beat the living tar out of 29 men

  And high on the ceiling of the Pembroke pub

  There's 29 bootmarks & they're signed with love

  Heave hi heave hi ho the best man in Ottawa was Mufferaw Joe, Mufferaw Joe

  

  

  Cho...

  

  

  Big Joe Mufferaw

  Big Joe Mufferaw

  Big Joe Mufferaw

  Big Joe Mufferaw
