Buried under my feet
There's a man I did meet
Tally-roo-ta-die-roo-aye-ay
He sullied my name so I put him to sleep
Tally-roo-ta-die-roo-die-day
Buried under the hill
Is a feller' I killed
Tally-roo-ta-die-roo-aye-ay
I opened his throat for he looked at me ill
Tally-roo-ta-die-roo-die-day
Hidden under my bed
There's a woman I wed
Tally-roo-ta-die-roo-aye-ay
She was too hard to please, harder still now she's dead
Tally-roo-ta-die-roo-die-day
Deep down under the sea
A crew of twenty-three
Tally-roo-ta-die-roo-aye-ay
Those who've seem them now know from my banners to flee
Tally-roo-ta-die-roo-die-day
So tell all who await
That our temper is great
Tally-roo-ta-die-roo-aye-ay
Those who don't heed the word cast their hand to the fate
Tally-roo-ta-die-roo-die-day
