A Vasoira
O patrón mandoume embora, (bis)
E non foi por cousa mala,
Foi por lle molla-la pluma, (bis)
No tinteiro da criada.
Retrouso
Miña vasoira, vasoira miña,
Hai moito tempo que non varre-la cociña.
(bis)
Varre, varre, miña vasoiriña,
Varre, varre, vasoiriña miña,
Na cama, na cama, na cama vai calor,
Na cama, na cama, na cama está mellor.
O patrón cando vai fora, (bis)
Déixalle dito a criada:
Veña tarde veña cedo, (bis)
Déitate na miña cama.
Retrouso
Miña vasoira, vasoira miña.....
Pretendinte e non quixeches, (bis)
Heite de volver pretender-e,
Ningunha lebre se escapa, (bis)
Se o galgo sabe correr-e.
Retrouso
Miña vasoira, vasoira miña.....
Si me da lo chuchamelo, (bis)
Que tes debaixo da saía,
Dareiche o san antoniño, (bis)
Todo cheíño de barba.
Retrouso
Miña vasoira, vasoira miña.....
The Chamber Pot
The boss sent me away, (repeat)
And it wasn't for a bad thing,
It was because he wet the quill, (repeat)
In the maid's inkwell.
Chorus
My chamber pot, my chamber pot,
It's been a long time since it swept the kitchen. (repeat)
Sweep, sweep, my little chamber pot,
Sweep, sweep, my little chamber pot,
In bed, in bed, in bed it's warm,
In bed, in bed, in bed it's better.
When the boss goes out, (repeat)
He leaves a message for the maid:
Come late, come early, (repeat)
Lie down in my bed.
Chorus
My chamber pot, my chamber pot.....
You pretended and you didn't want, (repeat)
I'll have to try again,
No hare escapes, (repeat)
If the greyhound knows how to run.
Chorus
My chamber pot, my chamber pot.....
If you give me the sweetmeat, (repeat)
That you have under your skirt,
I'll give you Saint Anthony, (repeat)
All full of beard.
Chorus
My chamber pot, my chamber pot.....
