Father's hunting in the forest Mother's cooking in the home I must go to fetch the water 'Til the day that I'm grown 'Til I'm grown, 'til I'm grown I must go to fetch the water 'Til the day that I'm grown
Then I will have a handsome husband And a daughter of my own And I'll send her to fetch the water I'll be cooking in the home Then I'll send her to fetch the water I'll be cooking in the home
