[Verse]
DThe fox went out one moon shiney night,
he prayed that the Moon might A7shine very bright
for he'd Dmany a mile to Ggo that night
beDfore he A7reached the Dtown-o, A7town-o, Dtown-o,
he had Gmany a mile to Dgo that night
beA7fore he reached the Dtown-o.
[Verse]
DThe fox ran along 'til he came to a farm
There he found ducks and A7geese in alarm.
Said " Dthe fattest of you all gonna Ggrease my chin
beDfore I A7leave this Dtown-o, A7town-o, Dtown-o,
the Gfattest of you all gonna Dgrease my chin
beA7fore I leave this Dtown-o."
[Verse]
DHe grabbed the old grey goose by the neck,
and throwed a duck A7across his back;
Dhe didn't mind their Gquack, quack, quack,
Dand their A7legs all a-dangling Ddown-o, A7down-o, Ddown-o,
he didn't Gmind their Dquack, quack, quack,
and A7their legs all a-dangling Ddown-o.
[Verse]
DOld Mother Flipper-Flopper jumped out of bed;
out of the window she A7poked her long head,
DCrying, "John, John! The Ggoose is gone
and the Dfox is A7on the Dtown-o, A7town-o, Dtown-o!"
GCrying, "John, John, the Dgoose is gone
and the A7fox is on the Dtown-o!"
[Verse]
DThen John grabed his horn and ran to the hill,
and there he blowed it A7loud and shrill,
"Dyou may blow" said the fox, "it's good Gmusic still
but I'll Dsoon be A7out of this Dtown-o, A7town-o, Dtown-o!"
"Gyou may blow" said the fox, "it's good Dmusic still
but A7I'll soon be out of this Dtown-o."
[Verse]
DThe fox ran along 'til he came to his den;
there he found young ones A7eight, nine, ten.
DThey said, "Daddy, better Ggo back again,
'Dcause it must A7be a mighty fine Dtown-o, A7town-o, Dtown-o!"
GThey said, "Daddy, Dbetter go back again,
'cause A7it must be a mighty fine Dtown-o."
[Verse]
DThen the fox and his wife without any strife
cut up the goose with a A7fork and knife.
DThey never had such a Gsupper in their life
and the Dlittle ones A7chewed on the Dbones-o, A7bones-o, Dbones-o,
Gthey never had such a Dsupper in their life
and A7the little ones chewed on the Dbones-o.
