W:A sly old fox one day did spy,
W:Fal-lal-le-di-do-did-dle-lal-li-day,
W:Some nice ripe grapes that hung so high,
W:Fal-lal-le-di-do-did-dle-lal-li-day,
W:The fruit he'd dearly loved to gain,
W:But although he tried with might and main,
W:To reach the fruit was all in vain,
W:Fal-lal-le-di-do-di-dle-lal-li-day.

W:The fox his patience nearly lost,
W:Fal-lal-le-di-do-did-dle-lal-li-day,
W:His expectations black and cross,
W:Fal-lal-le-di-do-did-dle-lal-li-day,
W:Still licked his chops for near an hour,
W:Till he found the fruit beyond his power.
W:Then he went and swore the grapes were sour.
W:Fal-lal-le-di-do-di-dle-lal-li-day.
