[Chorus]
We'll hide the Cooper behint the door
Behint the door, behint the door
We’ll hide the Cooper behint the door
And cover him under a mawn, O

[Verse 1]
The Cooper o' Cuddy came here awa
He ca'd the girrs out o’er us a';
An' our gudewife has gotten a ca'
That's anger'd the silly gudeman O

[Chorus]
We'll hide the Cooper behint the door
Behint the door, behint the door
Wе'll hide the Cooper bеhint the door
And cover him under a mawn, O

[Verse 2]
He sought them out, he sought them in
Wi’ deil hae her! an’, deil hae him!
But the body he was sae doited and blin'
He wist na where he was gaun O

[Chorus]
We’ll hide the Cooper behint the door
Behint the door, behint the door
We'll hide the Cooper behint the door
And cover him under a mawn, O
[Verse 3]
They cooper'd at e'en, they cooper’d at morn
Till our gudeman has gotten the scorn;
On ilka brow she's planted a horn
And swears that there they sall stan' O

[Chorus]
We'll hide the Cooper behint the door
Behint the door, behint the door
We'll hide the Cooper behint the door
And cover him under a mawn, O
