Fox, you stole the goose: text and sheet music
Ernst Anschütz wrote the text for this popular melody in Leipzig in 1824. And despite the many years that the children’s song has already been under its belt, it is still very popular with the little ones.
Here you will find the lyrics and sheet music for the children’s song “Fox, you stole the goose”
Fox you stole the goose
1. Fox, you stole the goose,
|: give it back, give it back! : |
|: Otherwise the hunter will get you
with the shooting gun. : |
2. His big, long shotgun
|: shoots the buckshot at you. : |
|: That the red ink stains you
and then you are dead. : |
3. Dear little fox, let me advise you,
|: just don’t be a thief. : |
|: Take it, you don’t need roast goose,
I’m happy with the mouse. : |
