Tigaree Torum Orum

There was a wise old woman and her story I will tell,

She loved her husband dearly and another man just as well.

With my tigaree torum orum and my torum orum me

And my tigaree torum orum and the blind man he can see.

Now she went into the doctor's shop some medicine for to buy

She asked the doctor kindly what would close her old man's eye

Now get for him some marrow bones and make him suck them all

And when he has the last one sucked, he cannot see you at all.

Now the doctor sent for this old man and told him what she spoke

He thanked the doctor kindly and he said he'd played the joke.

Now she got for him some marrow bones and she made him suck them all

and when he had the last one sucked, he couldn't see her at all.
