《The Devil & the Feathery Wife》歌词

[00:00:00] The Devil & the Feathery Wife - Martin Carthy
[00:00:21] Now there was an old farmer lived over the hill
[00:00:24] And a poor old fellow they say
[00:00:27] He was plagued by hunger and a scolding wife
[00:00:30] The worst misfortune that day
[00:00:33] And as he cut wood in the forest one day
[00:00:35] Between dark doom and despair
[00:00:38] The devil himself he jumped out of the bush
[00:00:40] And he stood before him there
[00:00:44] Oh what's the matter the devil he cried
[00:00:46] You look so discontent
[00:00:48] Haven't you got any money to buy your food
[00:00:51] Or to pay your landlord rent
[00:00:54] What would you give me the devil he cried
[00:00:57] If I should end your debate
[00:01:00] And I gave you money and gear enough
[00:01:02] So you'd never more want for meat
[00:01:05] But I've nothing to give you the old man cried
[00:01:08] I've nothing right here to my hand
[00:01:10] But if you would do what you say for me
[00:01:13] I'll be at your command
[00:01:21] Right then I'll make you a bargain the devil he cried
[00:01:24] It's a bargain you just couldn't miss
[00:01:27] You bring me a beast at seven years end
[00:01:29] I'll try to say what it is
[00:01:32] But if that beast I name aright
[00:01:34] You mark what I do tell
[00:01:37] You've got to toddle along with me
[00:01:40] For to view the ovens of hell
[00:02:04] So the old man prospered and prospered well
[00:02:07] It was all gained and spent
[00:02:09] Till he come to the end of seven long years
[00:02:12] Sorely he did lament
[00:02:14] Oh what is the matter his wife she cried
[00:02:17] You look so discontent
[00:02:19] Sure you've got some silly young girl with child
[00:02:23] Making you sore lament
[00:02:30] No I've made a bargain with the devil he cried
[00:02:33] It was a bargain I just couldn't miss
[00:02:36] I've got to bring him a beast at seven years end
[00:02:39] He's got to say what it is
[00:02:41] But if that beast he names aright
[00:02:44] You mark what I do tell
[00:02:47] I've got to toddle along with him
[00:02:49] For to view the ovens of hell
[00:02:52] Oh never you worry his wife she cries
[00:02:55] For your cattle your keep or you're feed
[00:02:57] For the wit of a woman it comes in handy
[00:03:00] At times in an hour of need
[00:03:24] Go and fetch me the droppings from all of our chickens
[00:03:26] And spread them all over the floor
[00:03:29] Stark naked I will strip myself
[00:03:32] And I'll roll in it all over and o'er
[00:03:35] And fetch me the basket of feathers she cries
[00:03:37] Of the beast we had for our tea
[00:03:40] And I'll roll and I'll roll all over in them
[00:03:42] Until never an inch be free
[00:03:45] So she rolled and she rolled in feathers and droppings
[00:03:48] From her head down to her navel
[00:03:51] By Christ he says what a horrible sight
[00:03:54] You look far worse than the devil
[00:03:56] Then the devil himself come in
[00:03:59] He began to for steam and to hiss
[00:04:01] By Christ he said what an awful sight
[00:04:04] I'm damned if I know what it is
[00:04:07] He started to shake and he started to quake
[00:04:10] Saying have you any more of these at home
[00:04:13] Yes he cries I've got seven more
[00:04:16] That in my forest do roam
[00:04:19] If you've got seven more of these beasts
[00:04:21] That in your forest do dwell
[00:04:23] I'll be as good as my bargain and I'm off home
[00:04:26] For she's worse than the demons in hell
