This page (click) has a different translation:

A kjore vatten, aa kjore ve

       Haul the Water and haul the wood
               and haul the lumber over the hill!
         Let everyone haul what they like to haul;
                I'll haul that girl of mine!
          I love the pretty girls
                with the rosy cheeks and blue eyes.
          And when I get the one I want,
                  then it is fun to live.
