Fox went out with his brother coyote They walked out upon the fields Just before the morning would break They knew where all the little birds go They knew where all the little birds go They had acquired a little steel trap They set the bait and they pulled it back Dreaming of a mid-morning snack In the bushes waiting for the snap Undercover, waiting to hear the trap go snap They caught themselves a little sparrow Not much more than a coyote mouthful But whose teeth would get to taste That single bite of sparrow meat Which brother would get to eat Old fox, he grabbed a wing Coyote did the very same thing Pulled that bird wing from wing Before the wishbone snapped, she did sing As her wishbone snapped, she did sing Old fox and your brother coyote You got me but before I go I know how you are both gonna die You’re gonna die choking on an old sparrow bone You’re gonna die chocking on a little sparrow bone Old black crow circling all around Checking out what is on the ground Bleached out white by the sun It’s what’s left of fox and his brother coyote Old dead fox and his brother coyote Greedy fox and greedy coyote Eat your veggies you old fox and coyote
