Paroles
There was an old man lived foot of the hill
If he ain’t moved away, he’s a-livin' there still
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
He hitched up his horse and went out to plow
How he got around we never knew how
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
Ol' devil come to him in the field one day
Sayin', «One of your family I’m gonna take away»
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
Take her on, take her on with the joy of my heart
I hope, by golly, you’ll never part
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
Ol' devil got her all up on his back
He looked like a pedlar with a hump on his back
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
Ol' devil got to the forks of the road
He said «Old lady, you’re a hell of a load»
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
Ol' devil got to the gates of hell
Said, «Punch the fire up, we’ll scorch her well»
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
Out come a little devil a-draggin' a chain
She picked up a hatchet and split out his brains
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
Out come a little devil a-skatin' on a wall
Said, «Take her back, Daddy, she’s a-murderin' us all»
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
Little devil was a-peepin' out the crack
Said, «Take her home, Daddy, don’t you bring her back»
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
The old man was a-peepin' out the crack
He seen the old devil come wagonin' her back
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
The old man lay sick in the bed
She up with a butter stick and rattled his head
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
The old lady went whistlin' over the hill
Said, «The devil won’t have me and I don’t know who will»
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
Now you see what a woman can do
She can outdo the devil and the old man too
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
The old lady went whistlin' over the hill
Said, «The devil won’t have me and I don’t know who will»
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
The old man was a-peepin' out the crack
He seen the old devil come wagonin' her back
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
The old man lay sick in the bed
She up with a butter stick and rattled his head
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
Now you see what a woman can do
She can outdo the devil and the old man too
Singin' fa diddle-a, diddle-a, fa diddle-a, diddle-a day
Traduction des paroles
Il y avait un vieil homme au pied de la colline
S'il n'est pas parti, il vit toujours là-bas
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
Il attela son cheval et sortit labourer
Comment il s'est passé on n'a jamais su comment
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
Ol ' diable venir à lui dans le champ un jour
Sayin', «Un de votre famille, je vais le prendre de suite»
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
La prendre, emmener sur la joie de mon cœur
J'espère, mes aïeux, vous ne serez jamais partie
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
Ol' diable a obtenu son tout sur son dos
Il ressemblait à un colporteur avec une bosse sur son dos
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
Le vieux diable est arrivé aux fourches de la route
Il a dit «Vieille dame, vous êtes un enfer d'une charge»
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
Le diable est arrivé aux portes de l'enfer
Il a dit: "frappez le feu, nous la brûlerons bien»
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
Sortir un petit diable a-draggin ' une chaîne
Elle a pris une hache de guerre et s'est séparée de son cerveau
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
Sortir un petit diable a-skatin ' sur un mur
Il a dit: "ramène-la, papa, elle nous assassine tous»
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
Petit diable était un-peepin ' la fissure
Il a dit: "ramène-la à la maison, Papa, ne la ramène pas»
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
Le vieil homme était un-peepin ' la fissure
Il a vu le vieux diable venir wagonin ' son dos
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
Le vieil homme était malade dans le lit
Elle avec un bâton de beurre et secoué sa tête
Singin' fa diddle-un, diddle-a, fa diddle-un, diddle-un jour
La vieille dame est allée Siffler sur la colline
Il a dit «" le diable ne m'aura pas et je ne sais pas qui le fera»
