The Farmer's Cursed Wife Lyrics - Tim O'brien

Well there was an old man who lived by the mill 

If he ain't moved away he's a livin' there still 

Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day 

 

Well the devil he came to the field one day 

Said it's your old woman I'm a gonna take away 

Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day 

 

Oh take her oh take her with all of my heart 

And I hope to my soul that you'll never never part 

Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day 

 

Well he took the old lady all up in a sack 

And off to Hell they went clickety clack 

Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day 

 

Well they got her on down about half of the road 

Says old lady you're a devil of a load 

Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day 

 

When he got her on down to the gates of hell 

Says punch up the fire, gonna scorch her well 

Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day 

 

Nine little devils come a draggin' a chain 

She took it away and she knocked out their brains 

Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day 

 

Ten little devils went a climbin' the wall 

Sayin' take her back Daddy she's a murderin' us all 

Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day 

 

Well she found the old man lying late in the bed 

She picked up the butter stick and paddled his head 

Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day 

 

Away she went whistilin' over the hill 

If the devil won't have me I wonder who will 

Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day 

 

Well that goes to show you what a woman will do 

She's worse than the devil and she's worse than you 

Singing Fie diddle-eye diddle-eye dye, diddle-eye diddle-eye day 

Are you remember?
