Lyrics: Anon

Guillot un jour, étant délibéré,
Avec sa femme emmy un champ besogne;
Madame alors, qui venait de son pré,
L'avise là et Guillot ne s'éloigne.
"Comment" dit ell', voyant cette besogne,
"Que faites-vous? Je veux savoir que c'est."
"Je besognais" dit-il "s'il vous en plaît."
Elle répond (qui point ne fut marrie):
"Hé, donnez-m'en Guillot, je vous prie."

So one day Guillot's well fired-up, and
he's servicing his missus in the middle of this field.
The squire's wife, who's returning from her patch,
is clocking him, but Guillot doesn't leave off.
She goggles at the sight, and she's like:
"What are you up to? That's what I'd like to know."
And he's like: "If you don't mind, I was on the job."
Completely unfazed, she's like:
"Hah, I'll have some of that please, Guillot."
