Es wollt ein Bauer früh aufstehn

A Farmer Wanted to Get Up Early
A farmer wanted to get up early.
A farmer wanted to get up early,
Wanted to go out to his field.
Fateritirallala fateritira
And when the farmer came home
He wanted something to eat
Oh Lieschen, cook me millet porridge
With fried potatoes and fried eggs
And when the farmer sat down to eat
There was a noise in the pantry
Oh dear wife, what is that
There's a rumbling in the pantry
Oh dear husband, that's the wind
Rustling in the kitchen cupboard
The farmer said he wanted to see for himself
Wanted to go into the pantry himself
And when the farmer entered the pantry
The priest put on his pants
Hey priest, what are you doing in my house
I'll throw you out immediately
The priest said, what I'm doing
Your wife can't confess yet
So the farmer took a log from the stove
And hit the priest so he screamed
The priest cried oh horror oh fright
And stuck his butt out the window
People from near and far came
And thought it was the morning star
It wasn't the morning star
It was the priest's butt face
This is how it should go for all priests
Who go to strange women at night
And the moral of the story
Don't trust the priest's butt face
