Fox is out tonight Delilah, won’t you come back in
Fox is out tonight can’t you see I’m trying to save your skin
You know the full moon makes you foolish
And though I know you got but one wish
The fox is out tonight Delilah better come back in

Crickets calling you Delilah stay where you belong
Crickets calling you but it’s just a siren song
I know the moonglow is entrancing
And the luna moths are all out dancing
Crickets calling you Delilah stay where you belong.

It’s a wide open night and the stars are a sight
Blood rushing through your veins says you gotta go
It’s the call of the wildwood, gonna lead to no good
I wish I woulda listened when they told me so.

Fox is out tonight Delilah, won’t you come back in
Fox is out tonight dontcha put your trust in him
There’s the owls and the cougars and the coyotes too
You better listen to what I’m telling you
Fox is out tonight Delilah better come back in.

Fox is out tonight baby please don’t go
Fox is out tonight and you don’t know a friend from a foe
I can tell you right now he’s up to no good,
Remember the wolf and Red Riding hood
Fox is out tonight Delilah baby please don’t go.
