burl ives - 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 c-cked 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 t
