Lyrics to “Lillibulero” by Bellowhead
There was an old farmer, in Sussex did dwell
Lillibulero bullen a lar
He had an old wife, and she gave him hell
Lillibulero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
The devil he came to him at the plough
Lillibulero bullen a lar
Says, "I want your wife and I want her now"
Lillibulero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
instrumental
So the devil he hoisted her up on his hump
Lillibulero bullen a lar
And down to hell with her he did jump
Lillibulero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
instrumental
Two little devils were playing with chains
Lillibulero bullen a lar
She took up a stick and she knocked out their brains
Lillibulero bullen a lar
Two more devils looked over the wall
Lillibulero bullen a lar
They said, "Take her back or she'll murder us all"
Lillibulero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
So the devil he hoisted her back on his hump
Lillibulero bullen a lar
And back up to earth with her he did jump
Lillibulero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
instrumental
"Now I've been a devil the whole of my life
But I never knew Hell till I met your wife"
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
Lero lero Lillibulero
Lero lero bullen a lar
instrumental
Lillibulero bullen a lar
