The Devil and the Farmer’s Wife Lyrics – Hobart Smith
Singer: Hobart Smith
Title: The Devil and the Farmer’s Wife
There was an old man who owned a large farm
And a-had an old horse that plows his corn
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-diddle-a-dee!
He hooked up the sow and the cow to the plow
He tilled the land, the devil knows how
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-diddle-a-dee!
The old devil come to the old man one day, says
“One of your family I’ll sure take away”
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-diddle-a-dee!
He said to the wife, “I’m sure we are done, ’cause
Devil has come for our oldеst son”
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-oo-diddle-a-dee!
“It’s not your oldеst son I crave, but
Old scoldin’ wife I’ll sure take away”
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-diddle-a-dee!
“You can take her away with all my heart
I hope from hell she never does part”
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-diddle-a-dee!
He picked her up all on his back, and
All to hell they went a-clickady-clack
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-diddle-a-dee!
He set her down at the forks of the road
He said, “Old gal, you’re a terrible load”
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-diddle-a-dee!
He took’er on down to old hell’s gate, and
There 〈he made?〉 the old gal walked straight
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-diddle-a-dee!
Then two little devils come a-rattlin’ her chain
She off with her slippers and knocked out their brains
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-diddle-a-dee!
Then one little devil come a-climbin’ the walls, said
“Take her back, daddy, she’s gon’ burden us all”
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-diddle-a-dee!
So ’devil picked her up all on his back, and
Like an old fool he went a-lugin’ her back
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-diddle-a-dee!
The old man was layin’ sick in the bed, and
She took the butter stick and paddled his head
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-oo-diddle-a-dee!
The old man was a-layin’, peepin’ through the crack, and
Saw the old devil come a-luggin’ her back
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-diddle-a-dee!
He said to the boy, “You’re bound for a curse, she’s
Been to hell–she’s ten times worse”
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-diddle-a-dee!
It proves that the women is worse than the men
For they been to hell, come back again
And a fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-diddle-a-dee!

The Devil and the Farmer’s Wife – Terjemahan / Translation
Ada seorang lelaki tua yang memiliki pertanian besar
Dan seorang kuda tua yang membajak jagungnya
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-emple-a-dee!
Dia menghubungkan tabur dan sapi itu ke bajak
Dia mengolah tanah, iblis tahu caranya
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-emple-a-dee!
Suatu hari iblis tua datang ke lelaki tua itu, kata
“Salah satu keluargamu, aku pasti akan mengambil”
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-emple-a-dee!
Dia berkata kepada istri, “Saya yakin kita sudah selesai
Iblis telah datang untuk putra lama kami ”
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-oo-emple-a-dee!
“Bukan putra lamamu yang aku inginkan, tapi
Istri Old Scoldin, saya pasti akan mengambil ”
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-emple-a-dee!
“Anda bisa membawanya pergi dengan sepenuh hati
Saya berharap dari neraka dia tidak pernah melakukan bagian ”
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-emple-a-dee!
Dia mengangkatnya semua di punggungnya, dan
Semua di neraka mereka pergi-klak klik
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-emple-a-dee!
Dia meletakkannya di garpu jalan
Dia berkata, “Gal tua, kamu adalah beban yang mengerikan”
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-emple-a-dee!
Dia turun ke Gerbang Hell’s Old, dan
Di sana dia membuat? gadis tua itu berjalan lurus
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-emple-a-dee!
Lalu dua setan kecil datang a-rattlin ‘rantainya
Dia pergi dengan sandal dan menjatuhkan otak mereka
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-emple-a-dee!
Lalu satu iblis kecil datang a-climbin ‘The Walls, kata
“Bawa dia kembali, Ayah, dia akan membebani kita semua”
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-emple-a-dee!
Jadi ‘Iblis menjemputnya semua di punggungnya, dan
Seperti orang bodoh, dia melesat ke punggungnya
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-emple-a-dee!
Orang tua itu sedang sakit di tempat tidur, dan
Dia mengambil tongkat mentega dan mengayuh kepalanya
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-oo-emple-a-dee!
Orang tua itu benar-benar berlapis, mengintip melalui celah, dan
Melihat Iblis Tua Datang A-Luggin ‘Punggungnya
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-emple-a-dee!
Dia berkata kepada bocah itu, “Kamu terikat kutukan, dia
Telah ke neraka-dia sepuluh kali lebih buruk ”
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-o-emple-a-dee!
Itu membuktikan bahwa para wanita lebih buruk dari pria
Karena mereka pergi ke neraka, kembali lagi
Dan fi-, fi-, diddle-a-dee, diddle-a-emple-a-dee!
