The ugly bug ball: Burl Ives
(From the 1963 film. Summer Magic)
(Capo on first fret)
G D7
Once a lonely caterpillar sat and cried
G
To a sympathetic beetle by his side
D7
I've got nobody to hug
G
I'm such an ug-i-ly bug
G D7
Then a spider and a dragonfly replied
G Em
If you're serious and want to win a bride
G D7 G
Come along with us, to the glorious annual ugly bug ball
CHORUS
G C
Come on let's crawl (gotta crawl gotta crawl)
G
To the ugly bug ball (to the ball to the ball)
C D G C G
And a happy time we'll have there, one and all and the ugly bug ball
G D7
While the crickets click their cricky melodies
G
All the ants were fancy dancing with the fleas
D7
Then up from under the ground
G
The worms came squirming around
G D7
Oh they danced until their legs were nearly lame
G Em
Every little crawling creature you could name
G
Everyone was glad, What a time they had
D7 G
They were so happy they came
CHORUS
G D7
Then our caterpillar saw a pretty queen
G
She was beautiful and yellow black and green
D7
He said would you care to dance
G
Their dancing lead to romance
G D7
Then she sat upon his caterpillar knee
G Em
And he gave his caterpillar queen a squeeze
G
Soon they'll honeymoon, Build a big cocoon
D7 G
Thanks to the ugly bug ball
CHORUS
