The melody and the text (two stanzas) are from Myjava, the rest is ours. The idea to make ska
arrangement came to us after our gig at the Pohoda Festival – after three days of ska rhythms
everywhere we moved we couldn’t get them out of our heads.
Betka is still not okay with the morals of the text, so she refuses to sing it when her relatives
are around.

Mother, let me go to a dance
Because my burner
Is aflame tonight

Mother, let me go till morning
I’ll bring
A little lad from the dance

Let me go without my shroud and trousers
Father of the lad
Will be devil from hell

The wedding will be oh so grand
I will dance
Naked among devils

We will go together to live in hell
But don’t scold me, don’t ever scold me
That I didn’t tell you

Fantastic…
