Letra
I’m Jake the Peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
With my extra leg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
Wherever I go through rain and snow,
The people always let me know:
There’s Jake the Peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
With his extra leg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
The day that I was born, oh boy, my father nearly died.
He couldn’t get my nappys on, no matter how he tried,
'Cause I was born with an extra leg, and since that day begun,
I had to learn to stand on my own three feet,
Believe me that’s no fun!
I’m Jake the peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
With my extra leg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
Wherever I go through rain and snow,
The people always let me know:
There’s Jake the Peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
With his extra leg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
I had a dreadful childhood, really,
I supose I shouldn’t moan,
Each time they had a three legged race,
I won it on my own!
And also I got popular,
When came the time for cricket,
They used to roll my trousers up,
And use me for the wicket.
I’m jake the peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
With my extra leg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
Wherever I go through rain and snow,
The people always let me know:
There’s Jake the Peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
With his extra leg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
I was a dreadful scholar,
I found all the lessons hard,
The only thing I knew for sure was three feet make a yard.
To count to ten I used my fingers,
If I needed more,
By getting my shoes and socks of,
I could count to twenty-four.
I’m jake the peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
With my extra leg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
Whatever I did they said was false,
They said 'Quick march,' I did a quick waltz.
Then they shouted at me 'Put your best foot forward.'
'But which foot?' I said.
'It's very fine for you, you only got a choice of two, but me!
I’m jake the peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
With my extra leg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
THE END
Tradução da letra
Eu sou Jake, o Peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
Com a minha perna extra, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
Onde quer que vá pela chuva e pela neve,
As pessoas avisam-me sempre.:
Ali está o Jake, a Peg, a deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
Com a perna extra, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
No dia em que nasci, o meu pai quase morreu.
Ele não conseguia vestir as minhas fraldas, por Mais que tentasse.,
Porque nasci com uma perna a mais, e desde que esse dia começou,
Tive de aprender a aguentar - me sozinho.,
Acredita que isso não tem piada!
Eu sou Jake, o peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
Com a minha perna extra, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
Onde quer que vá pela chuva e pela neve,
As pessoas avisam-me sempre.:
Ali está o Jake, a Peg, a deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
Com a perna extra, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
Tive uma infância terrível.,
Acho que não devia gemer,
Cada vez que tinham uma corrida de três pernas,
Ganhei-o sozinho!
E também fiquei popular.,
Quando chegou a hora do críquete,
Costumavam enrolar-me as calças,
E usa-me para o wicket.
Eu sou jake, o peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
Com a minha perna extra, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
Onde quer que vá pela chuva e pela neve,
As pessoas avisam-me sempre.:
Ali está o Jake, a Peg, a deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
Com a perna extra, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
Eu era um péssimo estudioso.,
Achei todas as lições difíceis.,
A única coisa que tinha a certeza era que um metro fazia um quintal.
Para contar até dez usei os meus dedos,
Se eu precisasse de mais,
Pegando meus sapatos e meias de,
Podia contar até 24.
Eu sou jake, o peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
Com a minha perna extra, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
O que quer que tenha feito, disseram que era falso.,
Eles disseram "marcha rápida", eu fiz uma valsa rápida.
Depois gritaram - me: "põe o teu melhor pé para a frente."'
Mas que pé? Eu disse.
'É muito bom para ti, só tens uma escolha de dois, mas eu!
Eu sou jake, o peg, deedle-eedle-eedle-um,
Com a minha perna extra, deedle-eedle-eedle-um.
