The Fox Lyrics

The Fox

Lyrics:



The fox went out to the chase one night

Prayed to the
moon to give him light

He had many a mile to go that night

Before he
reached the town-o, town-o town-o,

Many a mile to go that night before he
reached the town

Many a mile to go that night before he reached the
town



He ran 'til he came to a great big pen

Where the ducks
and the geese were kept there in

Said a couple of you gonna grease my
chin

Before I leave this town o, town o, town o

Couple of you gonna
grease my chin before I leave this town

Couple of you gonna grease my chin
before I leave this town



He grabbed the grey goose by the neck

Throwed a duck across his back

He didn't amind with the quack, quack
quack

And the legs all dang-ling down-o, down-o, down-o

Didn't
amind with the quack, quack quack

And the legs all dang-ling down-o,
down-o, down-o

Didn't amind with the quack, quack quack

And the
legs all dang-ling down-o, down-o, down-o



Old mother Flipper
Flapper jumped out of bed

Out of the window she cocked her head

Cryin' John, John the grey goose is gone

And the fox is on the town-o,
town-o, town-o

John, John the grey goose is gone

And the fox is on
the town-o

John, John the grey goose is gone

And the fox is on the
town-o



Well, the fox he came to his own den

There were the
little ones, eight, nine, ten

Saying Daddy you better go back again

'Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o, town-o, town-o

Saying Daddy
you better go back again

'Cause it must be a mighty fine town

Saying Daddy you better go back again

'Cause it must be a mighty fine
town



Well, the fox and his wife without any strife

Cut up
the goose with a carving knife

They never had such a supper in thei
