The Fox
Ton : DEnglish
Couplet
Oh the Dfox went out on a Dchilly night
DPrayed for the moon to A7give him light
For he had Dmany a mile to Ggo that night
DBefore he A7reached the Dtown-o A7town-o Dtown-o
DMany a mile to Ggo that night Dbefore he A7reached the Dtown-o
Couplet
He Dran 'til he came to a Dgreat big pen
Where the Dducks and the geese were A7kept therein
He said "A Dcouple of you are gonna Ggrease my chin
DBefore I A7leave this Dtown-o A7town-o Dtown-o
A Dcouple of you are gonna Ggrease my chin Dbefore I A7leave this Dtown-o!"
Couplet
He Dgrabbed the grey goose Dby the neck
DThrew the ducks A7across his back
He didn't Dmind the "Gquack quack quack"
And the Dlegs all A7danglin' Ddown-o A7down-o Ddown-o
He didn't Dmind the "Gquack quack quack" and the Dlegs all A7danglin' Ddown-o
Couplet
Then Dold mother Flipper Flopper Djumped out of bed
DOut of the window she A7popped her head
Cryin' "DJohn John the grey Ggoose is gone
And the Dfox is A7on the Dtown-o A7town-o Dtown-o
DJohn! John! The grey Ggoose is gone and the Dfox is A7on the Dtown-o!"
Couplet
Then DJohn he ran to the Dtop of the hill
DBlew his horn both A7loud and shrill
The Dfox he said "I better Gflee with my kill
For they'll Dsoon be A7on my Dtrail-o A7trail-o Dtrail-o"
The Dfox he said "I better Gflee with my kill for they'll Dsoon be A7on my Dtrail-o"
Couplet
Well he Dran til he came to his Dcozy den
DThere were his little ones A7eight nine ten
Cryin' "DDaddy daddy better Ggo back again
Cause it Dmust be a A7mighty fine Dtown-o A7town-o Dtown-o
DDaddy daddy better Ggo back again cause it Dmust be a A7mighty fine Dtown-o!"
Couplet
Then the Dfox and his wife Dwithout any strife
DCut up the goose with a A7carving knife
They Dnever had such a Gsupper in their life
And the Dlittle ones A7chewed on the Dbones-o A7bones-o Dbones-o
They Dnever had such a Gsupper in their life and the Dlittle ones A7chewed on the Dbones-o!
