The Fox

歌詞

The fox went out on a chilly night He prayed for the moon to give him light for he'd many a mile to go that night Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o He'd many a mile to go that night before he reached the town-o He ran till he came to the farmers pen the ducks and the geese were kept therein He said a couple of you are gonna grease my chin, before I leave this town-o, town-o, town-o a couple of you are going to grease my chin before I leave this town-o He grabbed the great goose by the neck threw a duck across his back and he didn't mind the quack, quack and the legs all danglin' down-o down-o down-o he didn't mind the quack quack and the legs all danglin' down-o Well the old grey women jumped out of bed Out of the window she popped her head cried john john the great goose is gone and the fox is on the town-o town-o town-0 john john the great goose is gone and the fox is on the town-o He ran till he came to his nice warm den and there were the little ones eight, nine, ten sayin' daddy daddy better go back again it must be a mighty fine town-o town-o town-o daddy daddy go back again it must be a mighty fine town-o The fox and his wife, without any strife cut up the goose with a fork and a knife they never had such a supper in their life and the little ones chewed on the bones-o bones-o bones-o they never had such a supper in their life and the little ones chewed on the bones.
