D
isabel met an enormous bear ,

D
isabel , isabel , she didnt care;

D – – stop
the bear was hungry , the bear was ravenous ,

D – – stop
the bears big mouth was cruel and cavernous .

D
the bear said , isabel , glad to meet you ,

D
how do , isabel , now ill eat you

A
isabel , isabel , she didnt worry .

Em
isabel didnt scream or scurry .

A
washed her hands and she straightened her hair up ,

Em D A
then isabel ate the bear up .

once in a night black as pitch
isabel met a wicked old witch .
witchs face was cross and wrinkled ,
witchs gums with teeth were sprinkled .
ho , ho , isabel the old witch crowed ,
ill turn you into an ugly toad!
isabel , isabel , didnt worry ,
isabel didnt scream or scurry ,
showed no rage and she showed no rancor ,
turned the witch into milk and drank her .

isabel met a hideous giant
isabel so self – reliant .
the giant was hairy , the giant was horrid ,
one eye there in the middle of his forhead .
good morning , isabel , the giant said ,
ill grind your bones to make my bread .
isabel , isabel , she didnt worry ,
isabel didnt scream or scurry .
nibbled on his zwieback that she fed off ,
and when it was gone , she cut the giants head off .

D
isabel met a troublesome doctor ,

D
punched and poked and really shocked her .

D
the doctors talk was of coughs and chills

D
and the doctors satchel bulged with pills .

D
the doctor said whoa isabel ,

D
swallow this , gonna make you well .

A
isabel , isabel , didnt hurry ,

Em
isabel didnt scream or scurry .

A
took those pills from the pill concocter ,

Em
then isabel cured the doctor .
