[ Featuring The Stonemasons ]
Daddy Fox, he went out one chilly night
He prayed to the moon for to give him light
For he'd many, many miles to go that night
Before he came to his den, oh
Den, oh, den, oh
For he'd many, many miles to go that night
Before he came to his den, oh
He ran till he came to the farmer's pen
The ducks and the geese were kept therein
Said, a couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town, oh
Town, oh, town, oh
A couple of you are gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town, oh
He grabbed a gray goose by the neck
Threw a duck across his back
And he didn't mind that quack, quack, quack
And the legs all dangling down, oh
Down, oh, down, oh
He didn't mind that quack, quack
And the legs all dangling down, oh
Oh, the old gray woman jumped out of bed
Out of the window she popped her head
Crying, John, John, the gray goose is gone
And the fox is on the town, oh
Town, oh, town, oh
John, John, the gray goose is gone
And the fox is on the town, oh
Well John he ran to the top of the hill
Blew his horn both loud and shrill
The fox he said, better flee with my kill
For they'll soon to be on my tail, oh
Tail, oh, tail, oh
The fox he said, I'd better flee with my kill
For they'll soon to be on my tail, oh
He ran till he came to his nice warm den
There were the little ones, eight, nine, ten
Singing, daddy, daddy, better go back again
Must be a mighty fine town, oh
Town, oh, town, oh
Daddy, daddy, better go back again
For it must be a mighty fine town, oh
Oh, the fox and his wife, without any strife
They cut up that goose with a fork and a knife
And they never had such a supper in their life
And the little ones chewed on the bones, oh
Bones, oh, bones, oh
They never had such a supper in their life
And the little ones chewed on the bones, oh
Daddy Fox, he went out one chilly night
He prayed to the moon for to give him light
For he'd many, many miles to go that night
Before he came to his den, oh
Den, oh, den, oh
For he'd many, many miles to go that night
Before he came to his den, oh
