I need the lyrics to the old folk song--Fox went out on a hunt last night. Prayed to the moon to give him light----

THE FOX (click) (in the Digital Tradition)

In Digitrad under word search with 'fox went out'. Always worth looking there first, if only to save yourself the vitriol that impatient guests will pour on you for not looking there first.

There are 5 versions in the DT. Search for foxout*

We really should put a DT # on it, but haven't yet, so you can search for the filename, all of which start with foxout. When you see the filename (down the bottom) with a number in it, there are usually other versions with similar filenames.
