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
Me levanté una mañana y salí a arar
Tee roo, tee roo, salí a arar
Con dieciséis bueyes y una maldita vaca
Tee roo, tee roo, y una maldita vaca
Bueno, apareció el Diablo y dijo, '¿Cómo estás?'
Tee roo, tee roo, dijo '¿cómo estás?'
'Hay uno en tu familia que debo llevarme'
Tee roo, tee roo, 'que debo llevarme'
'Bueno, todo lo que quiero es a tu esposa'
Tee roo, tee roo, 'a tu esposa'
'Bueno, puedes tenerla con todo mi corazón'
Tee roo, tee roo, 'con todo mi corazón'
La llevó por la mitad del camino
Tee roo, tee roo, por la mitad del camino
Dijo 'Vieja, eres una carga del demonio'
Tee roo, tee roo, 'una carga del demonio'
Había tres diablillos encadenados
Tee roo, tee roo, encadenados
Ella tomó un hacha y les destrozó el cerebro
Tee roo, tee roo, les destrozó el cerebro
Nueve diablillos asomaron por el muro
Tee roo, tee roo, asomaron por el muro
Diciendo, 'Llévala de vuelta, Papá, nos va a matar a todos'
Tee roo, tee roo, 'nos va a matar a todos'
Al día siguiente me levanté y miré por la rendija
Tee roo, tee roo, miré por la rendija
Y vi al viejo Diablo llevándola de vuelta
Tee roo, tee roo, llevándola de vuelta
Esto demuestra que las mujeres son mejores que los hombres
Tee roo, tee roo, son mejores que los hombres
Todos hemos estado en el infierno y hemos regresado
Tee roo, tee roo, hemos regresado
