OLD SHOES AND LEGGIN'S



A man that was old came a-courtin' one day

And the girls wouldn't have him;

He came down the lane and walked on a cane,

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.



Mamma told me to open the door,

I shan't have him ;

I opened the door and shoved him to the floor,

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.



My mother, she told me to give him a chair,

For the girls wouldn't have him;

I gave him a chair and he looked mighty quare,

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.



My mother she told me to hang up his hat,

Oh, but I wouldn't have him!

I hung up his hat and he kicked at the cat,

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.



My mother she told me to give him some meat,

Oh, but I wouldn't have him;

I gave him some meat and oh, how he did eat,

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.



Mamma told me to bake him a pie,

Oh, but I wouldn't have him!

I baked him a pie and he swore he ate a fly,

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.



My mother she told me to give him a hoe,

Oh, but I wouldn't have him!

I gave him a hoe and he jumped jim Crow,

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.



Mamma told me to bake him a cake,

Oh, but I wouldn't have him!

I baked him a cake and he swore he ate a snake,

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.



My mother she told me to give him a saw,

Oh, but I wouldn't have him!

I gave him a saw and he played "Rye Straw,"

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.



My mother she told me to put him to bed,

Oh, but I wouldn't have him!

I put him to bed and he stood on his head,

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.



Mamma told me to saddle his horse,

Oh, but I wouldn't have him!

Saddled his horse and he went North,

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.



My mother she told me to send him away

For the girls wouldn't have him.

I sent him away and he left us to stay

With his old shoes on and his leggin's.

VIEILLES CHAUSSURES ET LEGGIN'S



Un homme qui était vieux est venu en cour un jour

Et les filles ne voulaient pas de lui;

Il est descendu la ruelle et a marché sur une canne,

Avec ses vieilles chaussures et ses leggins.



Maman m'a dit d'ouvrir la porte,

Je ne l?aurai pas;

J'ai ouvert la porte et l'ai poussé au sol,

Avec ses vieilles chaussures et ses leggins.



Ma mère, elle m'a dit de lui donner une chaise,

Car les filles ne voudraient pas de lui;

Je lui ai donné une chaise et il avait l'air puissant,

Avec ses vieilles chaussures et ses leggins.



Ma mère, elle m'a dit de raccrocher son chapeau,

Oh, mais je ne l'aurais pas!

J'ai raccroché son chapeau et il a donné un coup de pied au chat,

Avec ses vieilles chaussures et ses leggins.



Ma mère m'a dit de lui donner de la viande,

Oh, mais je ne l'aurais pas;

Je lui ai donné de la viande et oh, comment il a mangé,

Avec ses vieilles chaussures et ses leggins.



Maman m'a dit de lui faire une tarte,

Oh, mais je ne l'aurais pas!

Je lui ai fait une tarte et il a juré qu'il avait mangé une mouche,

Avec ses vieilles chaussures et ses leggins.



Ma mère, elle m'a dit de lui donner une houe,

Oh, mais je ne l'aurais pas!

Je lui ai donné une houe et il a sauté sur Jim Crow,

Avec ses vieilles chaussures et ses leggins.



Maman m'a dit de lui faire un gâteau,

Oh, mais je ne l'aurais pas!

Je lui ai fait un gâteau et il a juré qu'il avait mangé un serpent,

Avec ses vieilles chaussures et ses leggins.

Oh, mais je ne l'aurais pas!

Oh, mais je ne l'aurais pas!

Je l'ai mis au lit et il s'est tenu sur sa tête,

Avec ses vieilles chaussures et ses leggins.



Maman m'a dit de seller son cheval,

Oh, mais je ne l'aurais pas!

Il a sellé son cheval et il est allé vers le nord,

Avec ses vieilles chaussures et ses leggins.



Ma mère m'a dit de le renvoyer

Car les filles ne voudraient pas de lui.

Je l'ai renvoyé et il nous a quittés pour rester

Avec ses vieilles chaussures et ses leggins.
