There was an old man lived at the foot of the hill, if he ain't moved way he's a living there still. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
He hitched up his horse and went out to plow, and how he got around we never knew how. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
Old Devil come to him in the field one day, saying one or your family I'm a gonna take a away. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
Take her old take her old (the old lady) with the joy of my heart. I hope by Golly, you'll never part. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
Old Devil got her (the old lady) all loaded up on his back. He looked like a fella with a hump on this back. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
Old Devil got to the forks of the road. He said, old lady you're a hell of a load. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
Old Devil got to the gate so hell, said put the fire up we'll start you well. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
Out come a little devil a dragging a chain, she picked up a hatchet and split out his brain. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
Out come a little devil skating on a wall, said take her back daddy she's a murdering us all. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
Little devil was peeping right out the cracks said take her home daddy, don't you bring he back. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
The old man was peeping out the cracks he seen the old Devil come wagging her back. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
The old man lay sick in the bed. She upped with a b***er stick and paddled his head. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
Old lady went west over the hill, said the Devil won't have me and I don't know who will. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
Now you see what a woman can do. She can out do the Devil and the old man too. Singing Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-Faaa-dita-la-dita-la-daaay.
