Tee Roo, Tee Roo
I got up one morning and I went out to plough
Tee roo, tee roo, I went out to plough
With sixteen oxen and a darned old cow
Tee roo, tee roo, and a darned old cow
Well up Popped the Devil, said, "How do you do?"
Tee roo, tee roo, said "how do you do?"
"There's one in your family that I must have"
Tee roo, tee roo, "that I must have"
"Well all I want is that wife of yours"
Tee roo, tee roo, "that wife of yours"
"Well, you can have her with all of my heart"
Tee roo, tee roo, "with all of my heart"
He carried her down about half the road
Tee roo, tee roo, 'bout half the road
He said "Old woman, you're a devil of a load"
Tee roo, tee roo, "a devil of a load"
There were three little devils in ball and a chain
Tee roo, tee roo, in ball and chain
She picked up an axe and she bashed in their brains
Tee roo, tee roo, she bashed in their brains
Well nine little devils peeked over the wall
Tee roo, tee roo, peeked over the wall
Saying, "Take her back, Daddy, she'll murder us all"
Tee roo, tee roo, "she'll murder us all"
Will I got up next morning and peeped through the crack
Tee roo, Tee roo, I peeped through the crack
And I saw the old Devil come a toting her back
Tee roo, tee roo, come a toting her back
Well this all goes to show women are better than men
Tee roo, tee roo, are better than men
We've all been to Hell and we come back again
Tee roo, tee roo, we come back again
Tee Roo, Tee Roo
Acordei uma manhã e fui arar a terra
Tee roo, tee roo, fui arar a terra
Com dezesseis bois e uma vaca velha
Tee roo, tee roo, e uma vaca velha
Então apareceu o Diabo, disse: "Como vai?"
Tee roo, tee roo, disse "como vai?"
"Tem um na sua família que eu preciso levar"
Tee roo, tee roo, "que eu preciso levar"
"Bem, tudo que eu quero é a sua esposa"
Tee roo, tee roo, "a sua esposa"
"Bom, você pode ficar com ela de coração aberto"
Tee roo, tee roo, "de coração aberto"
Ele a levou por metade do caminho
Tee roo, tee roo, por metade do caminho
Ele disse: "Velha, você é um peso danado"
Tee roo, tee roo, "um peso danado"
Havia três diabinhos com uma bola e uma corrente
Tee roo, tee roo, com bola e corrente
Ela pegou um machado e estourou os miolos deles
Tee roo, tee roo, estourou os miolos deles
Nove diabinhos espiaram por cima do muro
Tee roo, tee roo, espiaram por cima do muro
Dizendo: "Leva ela de volta, pai, ela vai nos matar"
Tee roo, tee roo, "ela vai nos matar"
Então acordei na manhã seguinte e olhei pela fresta
Tee roo, tee roo, olhei pela fresta
E vi o velho Diabo trazendo ela de volta
Tee roo, tee roo, trazendo ela de volta
Bem, tudo isso mostra que as mulheres são melhores que os homens
Tee roo, tee roo, são melhores que os homens
Todos nós já fomos ao Inferno e voltamos de novo
Tee roo, tee roo, voltamos de novo
