The Farmer's Cursed Wife lyrics
Well there was an old man who lived by the mill
If he ain't moved away he's a livin' there still Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day Well the devil he came to the field one day Said it's your old woman I'm a gonna take away Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day Oh take her oh take her with all of my heart And I hope to my soul that you'll never never part Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day Well he took the old lady all up in a sack And off to Hell they went clickety clack Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day Well they got her on down about half of the road Says old lady you're a devil of a load Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day When he got her on down to the gates of hell Says punch up the fire, gonna scorch her well Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day Nine little devils come a draggin' a chain She took it away and she knocked out their brains Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day Ten little devils went a climbin' the wall Sayin' take her back Daddy she's a murderin' us all Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day Well she found the old man lying late in the bed She picked up the butter stick and paddled his head Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day Away she went whistilin' over the hill If the devil won't have me I wonder who will Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day Well that goes to show you what a woman will do She's worse than the devil and she's worse than you Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day
