[Verse 1]
[D]Petey: [singing around a campfire with his
banjo] 'Bout
a handsome little fox let
me sing you folks a yarn.
[A]Hey, diddle-dee

[D]'Twas 'Twas a splendid little
feller full of wit 'n' grace
'n' charm.
[A]Say, zippy-zee
zappa-za yappy-yo doodle-dum!
[D]Well, Well,
like [G]any little critter [D]needin' vittels for
his littl'uns, Well,
he [G]stole,
and he cheated,
[D]and he lied just to sur[A]vive.
With a[D] doodle-dum diddle-die

Petey: [A]Doo-dah doo-day day...

[Am]Petey: [A]Let me tak[D]e a little tick now
to color in the
scene: 'Cross
the valley lived
three yokels name
of Boggis, Bunce, and Bean.
Now these t[G]hree crazy jackies
had our hero on the
[D]run. Shot
the tail off the cuss
with a fox-shootin'
gun.
But that s[G]tylish little fox
was as clever as
a whip Dug as
[D]quick as a gopher
that was hyper-ack-a-tive.
[A]Other singers: Yeah!
Petey: [D]Now Now those three
farmers sit [A]'twhere there's
a [D]hole 'twas once a hill.
[A]Singin' diddle-dee

they're a-settin' up up there still. Singin' [A]zippy-zee
zappa-za yappy-yo...
Franklin Bean: [standing behind
him] What are you singing, Petey?
Petey: Just... just making it up as I went- as I went along, really.
Franklin Bean: That's just weak songwriting. You wrote a bad song, Petey!
