Lyrics The Fox - Cisco Houston
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
(2x)
He
ran
til
he
came
to
a
great
big
bin
Where
the
ducks
and
the
geese
were
kept
therein
Said,
a
couple
of
you
are
going
to
grease
my
chin
Before
i
leave
this
town
o
He
grabbed
the
grey
goose
by
the
neck
Throwed
a
duck
across
his
back
He
didn't
mind
the
quack,
quack,
quack
And
the
legs
all
dangling
down
o
Then
old
mother
flipper-flopper
jumped
out
of
bed
Out
of
the
window
she
cocked
her
head
Crying,
john,
john
the
grey
goose
is
gone
And
the
fox
is
on
the
town
o
Then
john
he
went
to
the
top
of
the
hill
Blew
his
horn
both
loud
and
shrill
The
fox,
he
said,
i
better
flee
with
my
kill
Or
they'll
soon
be
on
my
trail
o
He
ran
till
he
came
to
his
cozy
den
There
were
the
little
ones,
eight,
nine,
ten
Saying,
daddy,
daddy,
better
go
back
again
For
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
