Кельтский ирландский оригинал песенки назавается Some say the devil is dead. Ирландская народная застольная. Исполняется группой Круахан без особенных отклонений от канонического текста Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead Some say the devil is dead, and buried in Killarney More say he rose again, more say he rose again More say he rose again and joined the British Army Feed the pigs and milk the cow, and milk the cow, and milk the cow Feed the pigs and milk the cow, early in the morning Cock your leg, oh Paddy dear, Paddy dear I'm over here Cock your leg, oh Paddy dear, it's time to stop your yawning Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead Some say the devil is dead, and buried in Killarney More say he rose again, more say he rose again More say he rose again and joined the British Army Katie she is tall and thin, she's tall and thin, and tall and thin Katie she is tall and thin, and like her drops of brandy Drinks it in the bed each night, drinks it in the bed each night Drinks it in the bed each night, it makes her nice and randy Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead Some say the devil is dead, and buried in Killarney More say he rose again, more say he rose again More say he rose again and joined the British Army The wife she has the hairy thing, a hairy thing, a hairy thing The wife she has the hairy thing, she showed it to me on Sunday She bought it in the furrier's shop, bought it in the furrier's shop She bought it in the furriers's shop, it's going back on Monday Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead Some say the devil is dead, and buried in Killarney More say he rose again, more say he rose again More say he rose again and joined the British Army My one's over six feet tall, six feet tall, six feet tall My one's over six feet tall, she likes the sugar candy Goes to bed at six o'clock, goes to bed at six o'clock Goes to bed at six o'clock, she's lazy, fat and dandy Some say the devil is dead, the devil is dead, the devil is dead Some say the devil is dead, and buried in Killarney More say he rose again, more say he rose again More say he rose again and joined the British Army Похабное содержание видно из текста. Ирландские барды-скальды :))) причудливо переплетают эротические мотивы с камнями в огород "нехороших" британцев. Ну, это у них по ходу дела, завсегда. В другом исполнении мне эта песня не попадалась, а вот сама мелодия где-то была, причем от круаханской она значительно отличалась даже по музыкальному рисунку.
