Текст песни The Fox - Live - Nickel Creek

Oh, the fox went out on a chilly night
And he prayed for the moon to give him light
For he'd many a mile to go that night
Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o
He'd many a mile to go that night before he reached the town-o

He ran 'til he came to the farmer's pen
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 going to grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o

He grabbed the gray goose by the neck
And he threw a duck across his back
And he didn't mind the quack, quack, quack
And the legs all danglin' down-o, down-o, down-o
He didn't mind the quack, quack
And the legs all danglin', down-o

Well, the old gray women jumped out of bed
She ran through the window, and she popped out her head
Cried, "John, John the great goose is gone
And the fox is on the town-o, town-o, town-o
John, John the great goose is gone, and the fox is on the town-o"

He ran 'til he came back to his den
And there were the little ones eight, nine, ten
Singin', "Daddy, daddy, better go back again
For it must be a mighty fine town-o, town-o, town-o
Daddy, daddy, go back again
For it must be a mighty fine town-o"

The fox and his wife, without any strife
They cut up that goose with a fork and a 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, hey
