Biography:
June Tabor (born 31 December 1947 in Warwick, England) is considered one of the foremost English folk singers of her generation. Aside from her highly-acclaimed solo music career, she has also combined her talents with greats such as Maddy Prior (as one half of Silly Sisters), Martin Simpson, Elvis Costello and Oysterband. In 2004, and again in 2012, she was named Folk Singer of the Year at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards. In 2011 the album "Ragged Kingdom" by June Tabor & Oysterband was named "Album of the Year" in the fROOTS critics poll.

[Verse]
F G
A good many gentlemen take great delight
C G C
In hunting poor Reynard the Fox
F G
For the very best food he does eat in the night
C G C
And lives upon fat geese and ducks
[Verse]
F G
In Ashendon Copse I did lie
D G
And I lived an extraordinary rate
C F G
A-cracking the bones in young lambs' tails
C G C
The farmers they all did me hate
[Verse]
F G
Oh, for my lord's horses and hounds they did send
C G C
And the huntsmen, they swore I must die
F G
Which made all the hair on me coat stand on end
C G C
And caused me from me young ones to fly
[Verse]
F G
All down Stony Lane they did run me
D G
And I gave 'em a very good race
C F G
When I entered the woods, I did rest then
C G C
The hounds they run forward and bays
[Verse]
F G
All through the wild woods they gave chase and gave game
C G C
And the gameskeeper saw me go by
F G
He chased me out onto the wide-open plain
C G C
It was then that he fired at me thigh
[Verse]
F G
All on stony fields they did kill me
D G
And bloodthirsty dogs did me follow
C F G
They tore me old coat all in pieces
C G C
Which caused the glad huntsmen to hollow
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
F G
Oh pardon, dear huntsmen, for I've spoiled your game
C G C
And the keeper has caused me to die
F G
But I leave little brothers of mine to remain
C G C
That love little else better than I
[Verse]
F G
And now that bold Reynard is dead
D G
We'll go to The Dolphin and dine
C F G
Now we'll dip his fore-foot in a bumper
C G
And drink up his health in good wine
