ALTEH BUCKI'm an alteh buck             I'm an old buck
Foon old Kentuck From old Kentuck
Uhn ich triypst tsu town And I drive to town
Lookin' like a schmuck (schmuck is vulgar for stupid jerk literally, "penis")
Oy, ich triypst arum Oh, I traipse around
Ahf a fehrdteleh On a little horse
Ich hob der ganseh veldt I regard the whole world
In d'rehrdtelleh [as belonging] in hell (if not in "hell", at least dead & buried - "in the earth")
Yippee ay oh kiyay
Oy, Yippee ay oh kiyay [
The word for horse, "fehrdt" and the word for hell, "d'rehrdt" (the earth), are both in the grammatical form, "affectionate-diminutive"]tune: I'm an Old Cowhand
