Lyrics

Kun Vihtori takkinsa naulaan nakkaa
silloin pirttihin väkeä jo pakkaa.
Vaari jo tanssitti naapurin akkaa
vaikkei peli vielä soinutkaan.
Piialta hommat menivät myttyyn
innoissaan tallasi taikinapyttyyn.
Muorinkin rintahan into jo syttyy,
huuteli, pannaanpa tanssiksi vaan.
Hei Taavetti yhdellä koivella loikki,
puujalka katkesi polvesta poikki.
Eukko se nurkassa itki ja voihki,
mut Taavetti ei ollu moksiskaan.
Rengin alta meni murskaksi tuoli,
housuista repesi se istumapuoli.
Kattikin pinkaisi aivan kuin nuoli.
Toiset jatkoivat tanssiaan.
Kas Vihtori osasi ne soiton alkeet
paljon kestivät haitarin palkeet.
Ääni oli heliä, Viipurin peliä
yskä ja nuha ei vaivaakaan.
Räätäli heilutti kyynäräkeppiä,
huuteli soitahan Oonesteppi.
Loppui meteli, kun Vihtori veteli
komialla Viipurin pelillään.

Lyrics translation

When I nail the stovepipe
by then, people are already packing up for the pirtti.
Grandpa was dancing next door.
even though the game hasn't played yet.
From the maid, things went wrong.
excited to step into the batter's box.
The enthusiasm for the breast of the mountain is already kindling,
he was screaming, Let's dance.
Hello Davetti with one leg leap,
the stiletto broke off his knee.
The old lady in the corner was crying and moaning,
but Taavetti wasn't fussy either.
A chair was crushed under the Reng.,
the pants ripped off the side of the seat.
The pot was stinging like an arrow.
The others kept dancing.
Well, the doctor knew the rudiments of playing.
it took a lot of accordion bellows.
The voice was Hel, Vyborg's game
cough and runny nose don't bother me.
The tailor brandished an elbow stick.,
Oh, yeah, I'm gonna call Oonesteppi.
I stopped the noise when the doctor pulled up.
with his handsome Vyborg game.
