[Gm] The fox went out on a chilly night.
For he'd many a mile to reach the town, oh town, oh.
before he reached the town, oh.
till he come to a great big bin where the ducks and the geese [G] were kept therein.
leave this town, oh [Gm] town, oh.
grease my chin before I leave this [D] town, oh.
He grabbed the grey goose by the neck, throwed a duck across his back.
quack and their legs all dangling down, oh down, oh.
For he'd many a mile to reach the town, oh town, oh.
before he reached the town, oh.
till he come to a great big bin where the ducks and the geese [G] were kept therein.
leave this town, oh [Gm] town, oh.
grease my chin before I leave this [D] town, oh.
He grabbed the grey goose by the neck, throwed a duck across his back.
quack and their legs all dangling down, oh down, oh.
