English text

Tomorrow the fox will come to town.
Keep, keep, keep, keep, keep.
Tomorrow the fox will come to town
To keep you all well there.

I must desire you neighbours all,
To holler the fox above them all,
And cry as loud as you can call,
Whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop, whoop.
O keep you all well there.

He'll steal the cock out from the flock.
Keep, keep, keep, keep, keep.
He'll steal the cock even from his flock
O keep you all well there.
I must desire you…

He'll steal the hen out of the pen.
Keep, keep, keep, keep, keep.
He'll steal the hen out of the pen
O keep you all well there.
I must desire you…

He'll steal the duck out of the brook.
Keep, keep, keep, keep, keep.
He'll steal the ducky out of the brook,
To keep you all well there.
I must desire you…

He'll steal the lamb even from his dam.
Keep, keep, keep, keep, keep.
He'll steal the lamb even from his dam
To keep you all well there.
I must desire you…
