Biografía:
Alfred Matthew Yankovic (Downey, EE.UU., 23-10-1959) es el músico, compositor y comediante norteamericano que se ha destacado, principalmente, por sus logradas parodias hacia distintos hits del cancionero del rock and roll mundial y sus intérpretes (por caso Smells like nirvana).
Acordionista, tecladista y vocalista, Wired Al se volcó al escenario artístico tras advertir que "lo suyo" no tenía nada que ver con el título de arquitecto que había obtenido por la Universidad Politécnica estatal de California San Luis Obispo.

Standard Tuning EADGBe
Intro: G# Fm G Cm
Verse 1:
G# Fm
As I walk through the valley where I harvest my grain
G Cm
I take a look at my wife and realize she's very plain
G# Fm
But that's just perfect for an Amish like me
G Cm
You know I shun fancy things like electricity
G# Fm
At 4:30 in the morning I'm milkin' cows
G Cm
Jebediah feeds the chickens and Jacob plows fool
G# Fm
And I've been milkin' and plowin' so long that
G Cm
Even Ezekiel thinks that my mind is gone
G# Fm
I'm a man of the land, I'm into discipline
G Cm
Got a Bible in my hand and a beard on my chin
G# Fm
But if I finish all of my chores and you finish thine
G Cm
Then tonight we're gonna party like it's 1699
Chorus 1:
G# Fm G Cm
We been spending most our lives living in an Amish paradise
G# Fm G Cm
I've churned butter once or twice living in an Amish paradise
G# Fm G Cm
It's hard work and sacrifice living in an Amish paradise
G# Fm G Cm
We sell quilts at discount price living in an Amish paradise
Verse 2:
G# Fm
A local boy kicked me in the butt last week
G Cm
I just smiled at him and I turned the other cheek
G# Fm
I really don't care, in fact I wish him well
G Cm
'Cause I'll be laughing my head off when he's burning in Hell
G# Fm
But I ain't never punched a tourist even if he deserved it
G Cm
An Amish with a 'tude? You know that's unheard of
G# Fm
I never wear buttons but I got a cool hat
G Cm
And my homies agree I really look good in black fool
G# Fm
If you come to visit, you'll be bored to tears
G Cm
We haven't even paid the phone bill in 300 years
G# Fm
But we ain't really quaint, so please don't point and stare
G C#
We're just technologically impaired
Bridge:
G# Fm G Cm
There's no phone, no lights, no motorcar not a single luxury
G# Fm G Cm
Like Robinson Caruso it's as primitive as can be
Chorus 2:
G# Fm G Cm
We been spending most our lives living in an Amish Paradise
G# Fm G Cm
We're just plain and simple guys living in an Amish Paradise
G# Fm G Cm
There's no time for sin and vice living in an Amish Paradise
G# Fm G Cm
We don't fight, we all play nice living in an Amish Paradise
Verse 3:
G# Fm
Hitchin' up the buggy, churnin' lots of butter
G Cm
Raised a barn on Monday, soon I'll raise an 'utter
G# Fm
Think you're really righteous? Think you're pure in heart?
G Cm
Well, I know I'm a million time as humble as thou art
G# Fm
I'm the pious guy the little Amlettes want to be like
G Cm
On my knees day and night scorin' points for the afterlife
G# Fm
So don't be vain and don't be whiny
G Cm
Or else, my brother, I might have to get medieval on your heinie
Chorus 3:
G# Fm G Cm
We been spending most our lives living in an Amish Paradise
G# Fm G Cm
We're all crazy Mennonites living in an Amish Paradise
G# Fm G Cm
There's no cops or traffic lights living in an Amish Paradise
G# Fm G Cm
But you'd probably think it bites living in an Amish Paradise
Outro:
G# Fm G Cm
Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh
G# Fm G Cm
Ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-ahh-yecch!
