Well The fox came out on the chase one night
He prayed to the Moon to give him light
For he'd had many miles to go that night
Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o
For he'd had many miles to go that night
Before he reached the town-o
Well He ran till he came to a great big pen
Where the ducks and the geese were kept therein
"A couple of you were gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o, town-o, town-o
"A couple of you were gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o."
He grabbed the grey goose by the neck
He slopped an old duck across his back;
He didn't mind with their quack, quack, quack
And their legs all a-dangling down-o, down-o, down-o
He didn't mind with their quack, quack, quack
And their legs all a-dangling down-o
Old Mother Flipper-Flopper[3] jumped out of bed;
And out of the window she cocked her head
Crying, "John, John! The grey goose is gone
And the fox is away to the den-o (god)!"
Crying, "John, John, the grey goose is gone
And the fox is away to the den-o
He prayed to the Moon to give him light
For he'd had many miles to go that night
Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o
For he'd had many miles to go that night
Before he reached the town-o
Well He ran till he came to a great big pen
Where the ducks and the geese were kept therein
"A couple of you were gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o, town-o, town-o
"A couple of you were gonna grease my chin
Before I leave this town-o."
He grabbed the grey goose by the neck
He slopped an old duck across his back;
He didn't mind with their quack, quack, quack
And their legs all a-dangling down-o, down-o, down-o
He didn't mind with their quack, quack, quack
And their legs all a-dangling down-o
Old Mother Flipper-Flopper[3] jumped out of bed;
And out of the window she cocked her head
Crying, "John, John! The grey goose is gone
And the fox is away to the den-o (god)!"
Crying, "John, John, the grey goose is gone
And the fox is away to the den-o
