The fox went out on a chilly night,
He prayed for the moon to give him light,
For he'd many a mile to go that night,
Before he reached the town-o, town-o, town-o,
He'd many a mile to go that night,
Before he reached the town-o.
He ran til he came to a great big pen,
Where the ducks and the geese were put therein,
"A couple of you will grease my chin,
Before I leave this town-o, town-o, town-o,
A couple of you will grease my chin,
Before I leave this town-o."
He grabbed the gray goose by the neck,
Throwed a duck across his back,
He didn't mind their quack, quack, quack,
And their legs a-dangling down-o, down-o, down-o,
He didn't mind their quack, quack, quack,
And their legs a-dangling down-o.
Then old Mother Flipper-Flopper jumped out of bed,
Out of the window she cocked her head,
Crying, "John, John! The gray goose is gone,
And the fox is on the town-o, town-o, town-o!"
Crying, "John, John! The gray goose is gone,
And the fox is on the town-o!"
Then John, he went to the top of the hill,
Blowed his horn both loud and shrill,
The fox he said, "I better flee with my kill,
Or they'll soon be on my trail-o, trail-o, trail-o!"
The fox he said, "I better flee with my kill,
Or they'll soon be on my trail-o!"
He ran till he came to his cozy den,
There were the little ones, eight, nine, ten,
They said, "Daddy, better go back again,
'Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o, town-o, town-o!"
They said, "Daddy, better go back again,
'Cause it must be a mighty fine town-o!
Then the fox and his wife without any strife,
Cut up the goose with a fork and knife,
They never had such a supper in their life,
And the little ones chewed on the bones-o, bones-o, bones-o,
They never had such a supper in their life,
And the little ones chewed on the bones-o.

Nice photos. You know, my mother is a musician and has stated a few years back that Ukrainian folk music and Celtic music share the same musical roots. I have never looked into it, but after listening to some Celtic music, I can hear a similarity. I actually found a great Ukrainian folk music CD which I highly recommend. It can be found here: Air Mail Music: Ukrainian Folk Music

Word last week that Camille Grammer would not be returning to "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" next season. Tuesday on "GMA"(weekdays, 7 a.m. ET on ABC) in an interview with Katie Couric, she explained why. "I gave them a list of things that I didn’t want to shoot: my children and my relationship with my boyfriend. I don’t think my ex would have signed off on it, and I don’t feel comfortable exposing my kids," she explained, as her new beau Dimitri Charalambopoulos watched from off-set. Speaking of her ex-husband, actor Kelsey Grammer, Camille revealed just how painful it was to go through a divorce in front of reality TV cameras last season. "Well the first season was horrible because they were filming me during the worst year of my whole life. My whole life was falling apart … my husband left me, he was having an affair with another woman in New York City while I was filming a reality show. It doesn’t get worse than that." She also responded to Kelsey’s infamous comment that…
