Wicked Dickie

Malvado Dickie

Wicked Dickie

Señoras y señores, esta es una canción sobre un viejoLadies and gentlemen, this is a song about an old man
Tenía una vacaHe had a cow
Solo tenía una vaca, y la vaca murióHe had but one cow, and the cow died
Amaba más a la vaca que a su propio hijoHe loved the cow better than his own child
Cuando la vaca murió, al no tener leche ni mantecaWhen the cow died, getting grieved by the cow was going no milk and butter
En casaAt home
Así que aquí viene esta canciónSo, here come this song

Si lloras por Dickie, te lo diré ahora mismoIf you mourn for Dickie, I'll tell you right now
Era un viejo y solo tenía una vacaHe was an old man and he had but one cow
Sobre setos, zanjas y campos había aradoOver hedges and ditches and fields he had plowed
Corrió por su vida solo para llegar a su vacaHe ran for his life just to get to his cow

Oh, malvado, malvado Dickie ha muertoOh, wicked, wicked Dickie done died
Oh, malvado Dickie ha muertoOh, wicked Dickie done died

Si lloras por Dickie, te lo diré ahora mismoIf you mourn for Dickie, I'll tell you right now
Era un viejo y solo tenía una vacaHe was an old man and he had but one cow
Sobre setos, zanjas y campos había aradoOver hedges and ditches and fields he had plowed
Corrió por su vida solo para llegar a su vacaHe ran for his life just to get to his cow

Oh, malvado Dickie ha muertoOh, wicked Dickie done died
Oh, malvado Dickie ha muertoOh, wicked Dickie done died

Cuando el viejo escuchó que su vaca había muertoWhen the old man heard that his cow she was dead
Sobre setos y zanjas ves que había huidoOver hedges and ditches you see he had fled
Sobre setos, zanjas y campos que estaban segadosOver hedges and ditches and fields that were mown
Corrió por su vida solo para llegar a la suyaHe ran for his life just to get to his own

Oh, malvado Dickie ha muertoOh, wicked Dickie done died
Oh, malvado Dickie ha muertoOh, wicked Dickie done died

Ahora me siento y como mi comida secaNow I sit down and I eat my dried meal
Pero no tengo leche para poner en mi baldeBut I have no milk what to put in my pail
No tengo manteca para mojar con mi panI have no butter to sop with my bread
Ahora el viejo malvado Dickie ha muertoNow old wicked Dickie is dead

Oh, malvado Dickie ha muertoOh, wicked Dickie done died
Oh, malvado Dickie ha muertoOh, wicked Dickie done died

Si lloras por Dickie, te lo diré ahora mismoIf you mourn for Dickie, I'll tell you right now
Era un viejo y solo tenía una vacaHe was an old man and he had but one cow
Sobre setos, zanjas y campos había aradoOver hedges and ditches and fields he had plowed
Corrió por su vida solo para llegar a su vacaHe ran for his life just to get to his cow
