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 | | | | Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link | |
