The fox

The fox went out one chilly night.

Pray'd for the moon to give him light

For he'd many a mile to go that night

Before he reached the town - o.

He ran 'til he came to a great big pen

Where the ducks and the geese were put there-in

A couple of you will grease my chin

Before I leave this town - o.

He grabbed the grey goose by the neck,

Throwed a duck acrost his back.

He didn't mind their quack quack quack

And their legs all danglin' down - o.

Old mother flipper flopper leaped out of bed.

Out of the window she cocked her head

John, John, the grey goose is gone

And the fox is on the town - o.

John he ran to the top of the hill.

Blowed his horn both loud and shrill.

Fox says he better flee with my kill

Or they'll soon be on my trail - o.

He ran till he came to his cozy den;

There were the little ones eight nine ten.

They said: daddy better go back again

'Cause it mus be a mighty fine town - o.

Then the fox and his wife without any strife,

Cut up the goose with a fork and knife.

They never had such a supper in their life

And the little ones chewed on the bones - o.
