Wicked Dickie

If you mourn for Dickie, I'll tell you right now
 He was an old man and he had but one cow.
 Over hedges and ditches and fields he had plowed
 He ran for his life just to get to his cow
 Oh, oh wicked
 Wicked Dickie done died
 Oh, oh wicked Dickie done died
 If you mourn for Dickie, I'll tell you right now
 He was an old man and he had but one cow.
 Over hedges and ditches and fields he had plowed
 He ran for his life just to get to his cow
 When the old man heard that his cow she was dead
 over hedges and ditches and fields you see he had fled
 over hedges and ditches and fields that were mown
 and he ran for his life just to get to his own
 now I sit down and eat my dried meal
 but I have no milk what to put in my pail
 now I have no butter to sop with my bread
 now old wicked Dickie is dead
 Oh, oh wicked
 Wicked Dickie done died
 Oh, oh wicked Dickie done died
 If you mourn for Dickie, I'll tell you right now
 He was an old man and he had but one cow.
 Over hedges and ditches and fields he had plowed
 He ran for his life just to get to his cow
