text: Oh the fox went out on a chilly night
  Prayed for the moon to give him light
  For 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-o
  He ran til he came to a great big pen
  Where the ducks and the geese were kept therein
  He said, A couple of you are gonna grease my chin
  Before I leave this town-o, town-o, town-o
  A couple of you are gonna grease my chin before I leave this town-o!
  He grabbed the grey goose by the neck
  Threw the ducks across his back
  He didnt mind the quack, quack, quack
  And the legs all danglin down-o, down-o, down-o
  He didnt mind the quack, quack, quack and the legs all danglin down-o
  Then old mother Flipper Flopper jumped out of bed
  Out of the window she popped 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!
  Then John he ran to the top of the hill
  Blew his horn both loud and shrill
  The fox he said, I better flee with my kill
  For theyll soon be on my trail-o, trail-o, trail-o,
  The fox he said, I better flee with my kill for theyll soon be on my trail-o
  Well he ran til he came to his cozy den
  There were his little ones, eight, nine, ten
  Cryin, Daddy, daddy, better go back again
  Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o, town-o, town-o
  Daddy, daddy, better go back again cause it must be a mighty fine town-o!
  Then the fox and his wife, without any strife
  Cut up the goose with a carving knife
  They never had such a supper in their life
  And the little ones chewed on the bones-o, bones-o, bones-o
  They never had such a supper in their life and the little ones chewed on the bones-o!
