Sly Fox lyrics
Old Raven had a lunch of cheese.
And sly fox did smell it in the breeze
The fox looked up and sweetly spoke
O Raven, on your perch of oak.
Your coat is black and your beak is yellow
If only now your voice were mellow
Yes if only your voice were mellow
You d be the fairest. Be the fairest
Be the fairest, in the woods.
Ole raven overjoyed by praise
And sure he d earned it in all ways
Breathed in deep and let a croak
And dropped the luncheon from the oak
Snatchin of this tasty prize
Sly ole fox was very wise
To fall for flattery
Good bird
You know it s vanity it s vanity
It s vanity
It must have hurt
Which lessened if you please
undoubtably as with the cheese
A bit too late the raven swore
The road would never cheat him no more
