The Gingerbread Man

from Sunshine Songs by Ross Mayhew

/

lyrics

run, run fast as you can
you'll never catch me i'm the gingerbread man
i ran from the baker and his wife too
you'll never catch me, not any of you!

the baker made a boy one day
who leapt from the oven ready to play
he and his wife were ready to eat
the gingerbread man who had run down the street

run, run fast as you can
you'll never catch me i'm the gingerbread man
i ran from the baker and his wife too
you'll never catch me, not any of you!

then came a pig, a cow and a hare
joined in the chase around the square
they were hungry and ready to eat
the gingerbread man was to quick on his feet

run, run fast as you can
you'll never catch me i'm the gingerbread man
i ran from the baker and his wife too
you'll never catch me, not any of you!

he came to a pond that blocked his path
and gingerbread men don't like to bath
out jumped a fox who said hop on
i'll take you safely across the pond

run, run fast as you can
you'll never catch me i'm the gingerbread man
i ran from the baker and his wife too
you'll never catch me, not any of you!

he climbed onto the foxes back
who licked his lips and wanted to snack
he climbed onto the foxes head
who loved the taste of gingerbread

run, run fast you can
you'll never catch me i'm the gingerbread man
he trusted the fox to help his plan
and that was the end of the gingerbread man
