Lyrics: Anon

Une fillette bien gorrière
Tout auprès d'une rivière
Embrassa un vert vétu*
La troussa dru & me nu.
Ils ouirent quelqu'un crier
Qui disait, "Que feras tu?".
Ils ne sont pas tous
Sur les arbres, les coucous.

This well nasty bint
Donned the green gown*
Right by the river there;
I boffed her hard, with me in the buff.
Someone was heard to shout,
"What are you up to?".
Not everything that's cuckoo
Sits in a tree!


*Dress stains resulting from fornication upon damp grass. An idiom common to both English and French folksong; not to be confused with Monica Lewinsky's blue dress.
