THE MILLER`S SON-IN-LAW

The two of them hid the third in a bag, bag, bag,
Then off to the mill their burden did drag, drag, drag.
(Chorus: Fal diddle day-o, faddle diddle day-o,
Fal diddle doo, de doo dum day)

They put down the bag by the miller´s daughter´s bed, bed, bed,
To be safe from the damp and the rain, so they said, said, said.
(Chorus)

But at night when all was silent and dark, dark, dark,
The bag began to get up and to walk, walk, walk.
(Chorus)

”Oh daughter, dear daughter, a candle please light, light, light -
I think there are rogues in our home here tonight, night, night.”
(Chorus)

”Oh no dear father, the candle please douse, douse, douse -
It was only the cat that was catching a mouse, mouse, mouse.”
(Chorus)

But up spoke the old wife they thought was asleep, sleep, sleep,
”That cat had leather boots on his feet, feet, feet.”
(Chorus)

”The devil take you and your sharp old tongue, tongue, tongue,
You didn´t talk that way when you were young, young, young.”
(Chorus)
