Ladies and gentlemen, this is a song about an old man.
|
He had a cow.
|
He had but one cow, and the cow died.
|
He loved the cow better than his own child.
|
When the cow died, getting grieved by the cow was going no milk and butter.
|
At home.
|
So, here come this song.
|
|
If you mourn for Dickie, I'll tell you right now
|
He was an old man and he had but one cow
|
Over hedges and ditches and fields he had plowed
|
He ran for his life just to get to his cow
|
|
Oh, wicked, wicked Dickie done died
|
Oh, wicked Dickie done died
|
|
If you mourn for Dickie, I'll tell you right now
|
He was an old man and he had but one cow
|
Over hedges and ditches and fields he had plowed
|
He ran for his life just to get to his cow
|
|
Oh, wicked Dickie done died
|
Oh, wicked Dickie done died
|
|
When the old man heard that his cow she was dead
|
over hedges and ditches you see he had fled
|
Over hedges and ditches and fields that were mown
|
he ran for his life just to get to his own
|
|
Oh, wicked Dickie done died
|
Oh, wicked Dickie done died
|
|
Now I sit down and I eat my dried meal
|
but I have no milk what to put in my pail
|
I have no butter to sop with my bread
|
now old wicked Dickie is dead
|
|
Oh, wicked Dickie done died
|
Oh, wicked Dickie done died
|
|
If you mourn for Dickie, I'll tell you right now
|
He was an old man and he had but one cow
|
Over hedges and ditches and fields he had plowed
|
He ran for his life just to get to his cow
|
