<description>The song is:

The Wee Cooper O&#039; Fife

There was a wee cooper lived in Fife 
Nickety nackety noo, noo. noo 
And he has tae&#039;n a gentle wife 
Risselty-rosselty, hey, pomposity 
Nickety nackety noo, noo, noo.

She wouldna card and she wouldna spin 
Nickety nackety noo, noo. noo 
For shamin&#039; o&#039;her gentle kin 
Risselty-rosselty, hey, pomposity 
Nickety nackety noo, noo, noo.

She wouldna bake and she wouldna brew 
Nickety nackety noo, noo. noo 
For spoilin&#039; of her gentle hue 
Risselty-rosselty, hey, pomposity 
Nickety nackety noo, noo, noo.

She called him a dirty Hieland whelp 
Nickety nackety noo, noo. noo 
If you want yer dinner go get it yourself 
Risselty-rosselty, hey, pomposity 
Nickety nackety noo, noo, noo.

The cooper&#039;s awa tae his wool-pack 
Nickety nackety noo, noo. noo 
And lain a sheepskin across her back 
Risselty-rosselty, hey, pomposity 
Nickety nackety noo, noo, noo.

I&#039;ll no thrash you, for your gentle kin 
Nickety nackety noo, noo. noo 
But I will thrash my ain sheep-skin 
Risselty-rosselty, hey, pomposity 
Nickety nackety noo, noo, noo.

He&#039;s laid the sheepskin across her back 
Nickety nackety noo, noo. noo 
And with a good stick he went whickety-whack 
Risselty-rosselty, hey, pomposity 
Nickety nackety noo, noo, noo.

Oh I will card and I will spin 
Nickety nackety noo, noo. noo 
And think nae mair of my gentle kin! 
Risselty-rosselty, hey, pomposity 
Nickety nackety noo, noo, noo.

She drew the table and spread the board 
Nickety nackety noo, noo. noo 
And &quot;My dear husband&quot; was every word 
Risselty-rosselty, hey, pomposity 
Nickety nackety noo, noo, noo.

All you who have gotten a gentle wife 
Nickety nackety noo, noo. noo 
Just send ye for the cooper of Fife! 
Risselty-rosselty, hey, pomposity 
Nickety nackety noo, noo, noo.

Meaning of unusual words: 
Nickety nackety and risselty-rosselty are just nonsense phrases.</description>
