v.1
The fox played the fiddle for the sheep in the bay
He played all night and he played all day
The fox played fast and the fox played slow
The fox played the waltz in an even tempo
Refrain:
Out came the sheep
And he gobbled them up
The fox ran away
And drank honey from a cup
He lay in the meadow
‘til the sun went down
He picked up his fiddle
and played another round
v.2
The fox played fiddle for the hens as they lay
He played all night and he played all day
he played on his belly and he played on his toes
the fox played a lullaby sweet and low
Refrain:
Out came the hens
And he gobbled them up
The fox ran away
And drank honey from a cup
He lay in the meadow
‘til the sun went down
He picked up his fiddle
and he went down town
tag
Sly is the fox with a fiddle and a bow
were he’ll play next you never know
Sly is the fox with a fiddle and a bow
Round and round the circle goes
Round and round the circle goes
