Martha said, “Well, I’m going to build me a house and live in it.” “What are you going to build it out of?” “Chips and clay.” “Well, the fox will eat you then.”
5
Then she went on to Mary and said, “I’m going to die Mary. What are you going to do when I die?” “Build me a house and live in it.”

“What are you going to build it out of?” “Out of chips and hickory bark.” “Well, the fox will get you then,” she said.

Mother sow went on to Nancy and said, “I’m going to die, Nancy. What are you going to do when I doe?” “Goin’ to make me a house and live in it.”

“What are you goin’ to build it out of?” “Steel and arn.” “Well, the fox won’t get you then.”
9
Time went on awhile and Mother Sow died. Martha built her house out of chips and clay, got in it, and went to keeping house.
10
The old fox came along and said, “Let me in her, little pig.” She said, “I hain’t goin’ to do it. You want to kill me, eat me.” The fox said, “If you don’t let me in here, I’m going’ to get up on the house and fiddy, fiddy, foddy your house all down.”
11
She said, “Now if you can fiddy, fiddy, foddy my house all down, why you just get up there and fiddy, fiddy, foddy my house all down!”
12
The fox got up there and it fiddy foddied, and it fiddy, foddied, and fiddy, fiddy, foddied her house all down and eat her up.
13
He went on down to Mary’s house and knocked on the door and said, “Let me in here, little pig.” She said, “No, I’m not going’ to let you in my house. You want to catch me and eat me up.”
14
The fox said, “If you don’t let me in here, little pig, I’m goin’ to get up on top of your house and fiddy, fiddy, fiddy, foddy your house all down.”
15
Mary said, “Now, if you can fiddy, fiddy, fiddy, foddy my house all down, you just get up ther and fiddy, fiddy, fiddy, foddy it down.”
16
It got up there, and fiddy, fiddy, fiddy, foddied, and it fiddy, fiddy, fiddy, foddied her house all down, come back down, and eat the little pig all up.
17
The old fox went on to Nancy’s house then and said, “Let me in here, little pig.” “She said, “I’m not a-goin’ to do it.” She said, “You want to kill me and eat me.”
18
Fox said, “Ah, if you don’t let me in here, I’m goin’ to get up on top of your house and fiddy, fiddy, fiddy, fiddy, foddy your house all down.”
19
She said, “Now, if you can get up there and fiddy, fiddy, fiddy, fiddy, foddy my house all down, why you just get up there and fiddy, fiddy, fiddy, fiddy, foddy my house all down.”
20
The fox came back down off the house and went up to the door and said, “Let me in here, little pig. Just let the end of my nose in.”
21
Nancy said, “No, I’m not a-goin’ to do it. You want to kill me and eat me.” Fox said, “No, I’m not. I’m cold. Just let the end of my nose in here.”
22
She let the end of its nose in, and when it stuck its nose in, she closed the door on it. Fox said, “Lord-how-mercy, little pig! You’re pinching the end of my nose off! Just let me in to my eyes.”
23
“No you’re goin’ to kill me and eat me.” “No, I’m not. I’m cold. Let me in up to my eyes.”
24
So she let it in up to its eyes and slammed the door on him. “Lord-how-mercy, little pig!” said the fox, “You’ve pinched my whole head off! Just let me in to my shoulders.”
25
“No, you want to kill me and eat me.” “No, I’m cold. Let me in up to my shoulders.”
26
So she let him in up to his shoulders and slammed the door on him. Fox said, “Lord-how-mercy, little pig! You’re pinching my whole shoulders off! Just let me in to my tail.”
27
No, you want to kill me and eat me.” “No, I don’t. I’m cold. Let me in to my tail.”
28
She let him in to his tail and slammed the door on it. He said, “Lord-how-mercy, little pig! You’ve pinched my whole tail off! Just let me every bit in.”
29
So she let him every bit in. The old fox jumped up in the middle of the floor and said, “Now I’l have fat pig for supper!”
30
Nancy run to the winder and said, “Lord-how-mercy, Mr. Fox! Yander comes grandpap and all of his hounds. Jist git in my chist and I’ll lock you up.”
31
So he got in that chist, and she locked him up and put the water on to heat. When it was hot, she went to pouring the b’iling water onto him.
32
He begin to squirm around in there and yelling, “Hotty, hotty, hotty hot in the hole, little pit! What are you doing up there?”
33
She said, “I’m pourin’ water to wash my dishes,” and kept pouring the b’iling water in. He kept on yelling, “Hotty, hotty, hotty hot in the hole, little pig! Hotty, hotty, hotty hot in the hole, little pig!”
34
That was the end of the old fox. She scalded him to death and had b’iled fox for supper. Nancy lived happy from then on in the steel and arn house.
