lyrics

The Fox

Well the fox went out on a chilly night
She prayed for the moon to give her light
She had many a mile to go that night
Before she reached the town-o, town-o, town-o
Many a mile to go that night
Before she reached the town-o

She ran ‘til she came to a great, big pen
The ducks and the geese were kept therein
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 gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o

She grabbed the grey goose by the neck
Slung the little one over her back
And she didn’t mind that quack, quack
And the legs all dangling down-o, down-o, down-o
She didn’t mind that quack, quack
And the legs all dangling down-o

Well Old Mother Pitter-patter jumped out of bed
Out of the window she cocked her head
Cried: 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

Well John he ran to the top of the hill
Blew that horn both loud and shrill
The fox she said: I better flee with my kill
They’ll soon be on my trail-o, trail-o, trail-o
The fox she said: I better flee with my kill
They’ll soon be on my trail-o

Well she ran ‘til she came to a cozy den
They were her little ones 8-9-10
Said: Mamma, mamma better go back again
It must be a mighty fine town-o, town-o, town-o
Mamma, mamma better go back again
It must be a mighty fine town-o

Well the fox’s husband came out from kitchen
Wearing an apron, he’d been doing the dishes
And mending the clothes with fine stitches
And watching the kids all along-o, along-o, along-o
Mending the clothes with fine stitches
And watching the kids all along-o

He said: Mmm! That smells like grass-fed meat
Take off a load and put up your feet
And I’m gonna cook us a fine treat
While you just rest your bones-o, bones-o, bones-o
I’m gonna cook us a fine treat
While you just rest your bones-o
