No, it's "Rissalty Russalty" (though I don't know how to spell it). I'm trying to find the lyrics online right now - haven't had any luck yet - and I came across this page and had to add my two cents' worth.

Aha! I found it. I was wrong on the title. Here it is: Wee Cooper Of Fife There was a wee cooper what lived in Fife (Chorus 1: Knickety, knackety, noo noo noo) And he had gotten a gentle wife (Chorus 2: Hey willy-wallacky, how John Dougal, a lane quo rooshety roo roo roo). She wouldna bake, nor she wouldna brew (Chorus 1) For the spoilin' o' her comely hue (Chorus 2) She wouldna wash, nor she wouldna wring (Chorus 1) For the spoilin' o' her gowden ring (Chorus 2) She wouldna card, nor she wouldna spin (Chorus 1) For the shamin' o' her gentle kin (Chorus 2) So the wee cooper went to his woodpack (Chorus 1) And laid a sheepskin on his wife's back (Chorus 2) 'Now, I wouldna thrash ye for your gentle kin, (Chorus 1) But I would thrash me ain sheepskin.' (Chorus 2) 'Oh, I will bake and I will brew, (Chorus 1) And nae mair think o' my comely hue! (Chorus 2) 'And I will wash and I will wring, (Chorus 1) And nae mair think o' my gowden ring! (Chorus 2) 'And I will card and I will spin (Chorus 1) And nae mair think o' my gentle kin!' (Chorus 2) So ye what has gotten a gentle wife, (Chorus 1) Just ye send for the wee cooper o' Fife! (Chorus 2, slowing down at the end)

1) ""Risseldy, Rosseldy" ("I married my wife in the month of June") Derived from the traditional Scottish folk song "The Wee Cooper o'Fife" Sung by the schoolchildren" Source: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0056869/soundtrack 2) ""Wee Cooper O'Fife" is a well-known Scottish folk song about a cooper who beats his wife because she will not cook, clean, and sew. It was recorded by Burl Ives on 11 February 1941[1] for his debut album Okeh Presents the Wayfaring Stranger. It has also been recorded by Hedy West, Ed McCurdy, and Ian Campbell.[2] An American variation of the song, entitled "Risseldy Rosseldy", was sung by the school children in the 1963 film The Birds right before they were attacked by a swarm of birds."
