Tekst piosenki
Ungr Ungr Ungr
Down in West Cow Parish 'bout twenty miles from Arkansas
Lived a man and his wife and four or five childrens
The wierdest people I ever saw
Old man Willis
That’s what everybody called him
He used to chase his young’uns and his wife
With his Jim Bowie huntin' knife
He had four coons a cat and a hound dog
They stayed in the same house with him
They ate from his dinner table
Drank from his water bucket
Slept in the same bed with him
Old Man Willis
Where do ya’all come from
He used to chase his youg’uns and his wife
With his double bladed sharp knife
Lord mama says she thought the man was crazy
Daddy said he’s just a drunk
Lord and some people say that he made his livin'
Making whiskey in the Beff River swamps
Old Man Willis
Where do you get your BRead
He used to chase his young’uns and his wife
With his double bladed huntin' knife
Lord we’d see him a comin' down a dirt road
In his forty-nine Pontiac
Just to getting it!
And mama would holler ya’all get under the house
Cause Mr. Willis drives like a maniac
Old Man Willis
Why do you drive so bad?
He finally caught his young’uns and his wife
And slate them with his huntin' knife
Lord have mercy
Willis! no no
Tłumaczenie tekstu piosenki
Ungr Ungr Ungr
Hrabstwo West Cow w stanie Arkansas
Żył mężczyzna i jego żona i Czworo lub pięcioro dzieci
Najdziwniejsi ludzie, jakich widziałem
Stary Willis
Wszyscy go tak nazywali.
Gonił swoje dzieci i żonę.
Z jego nożem Jim Bowie huntin'
Miał czterech szopów, kota i psa myśliwskiego.
Mieszkali z nim w tym samym domu.
Jedli z jego stołu.
Pił z wiadra na wodę.
Spałam z nim w tym samym łóżku.
Stary Willis
Where do y ' all come from
Gonił swoich młodzieńców i żonę.
Z jego podwójnym ostrym nożem
"Lord mama says she thought the man was crazy"
Tata powiedział, że to tylko pijak.
Lord and some people say that he made his livin'
Making whiskey in the Beff River swamps
Stary Willis
Skąd bierzesz chleb?
Gonił swoje dzieci i żonę.
With his double bladed huntin ' knife
Lord we 'd see him a comin' down a dirt road
W czterdziestym dziewiątym Pontiacu
Tylko za to!
# And mama would holler y ' all get under the house #
Bo Pan Willis jeździ jak wariat.
Stary Willis
Dlaczego tak źle prowadzisz?
W końcu złapał swoich młodych i żonę.
# And slate them with his huntin ' knife #
Panie miej litość
Willis! Nie, Nie.
