MOLLY BAKER. AKA and see "Big Tater." American, Reel (2/4 time). USA, Oklahoma. G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AABB.
Knife and a fork and a great big tater,
Take that pretty girl to be my waiter.
O law, I guess I'll take her,
Take that pretty little Molly Baker.
I had a wife and she was a Quaker,
If she went to sleep the devil couldn't wake her.
See also Max Collins' version as "Big Tater," a title that probably entered tradition from a miss-hearing of "Molly Baker."
