Текст песни Butter And Cheese And All (Leslie Johnson) с переводом

Now all you worthy gentleman have called on me to sing

But I can well assure you i can do no such thing

But since thàt you have called on me I’ll see what I can do

And when i get tho the i hope you’ll join in too

i hope you’ll join in too!

i once went courting of a cook ill tell you the reason for why

For when thàt I was hungry my wants her did supply

For when thàt i was hungry she brought to me relIef

She fed me on the best of pies and plenty of roast beef

And plenty of Roast beef

One night invite her invited me round to supper One day I went round to see her

and she asked me into tea,

She said the master and missus was out and we’d have a jolly ould spree,

I went into the parlour me tummy for to please,

And into me pocket she’s rammed some butter and into the other some cheese,

And into the other some cheese.

Well now supper being over, and I could eat no more.

Oh Lord! to my surprise a knock comes to the door.

I looked around for a place to hide but that I couldn’t know.

So its into the chimney I did creep, just as black as any ould crow,

As black as any ould crow.

Well the fire being rather warm it began to toast me knees,

Likewise to melt me butter, Likewise to toast me cheese,

And as every drop fell in the fire a terrible flame was there.

And the master swore as in his own house that the Devil himself was there,

That the Devil himself was there.

So it’s way upon the roof he crawled to drive poor Geordie out,

And he began to pour cold water down which put me to a rout,

It’s out of the chimney I did creep and into the street did crawl,

I was forced to ramble as fast as I could clutching my butter and cheese and

all,

Clutching my butter and Cheese and all.

Well some said it was the devil and him they very well know,

Others said it was Geordie myself just as black as any ould crow,

The women screamed the dogs did bark and the children laughed and all,

And then they began to blabber as how you’ve got butter and cheese and all.

We’ve got butter and cheese and all.
