Sly Fox lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics 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 song lyrics
