Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf
Lyrics:
Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?
Big Bad Wolf, Big Bad Wolf
Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?
Fa la la la la
Long ago there were three pigs
Little handsome piggy wigs
For the big bad, very bad, very big wolf
They didn't give three figs
Number one was very gay
And he built his house with hay
With a hay-hay-toot
He blew on his flute,
And he played around all day
Number two was fond of jigs
And so he build his house with twigs
Hey-diddle-diddle, he played on his fiddle
And danced with lady pigs
Number three said nicks-on-tricks
"I will build my house with bricks."
He had no chance to sing and dance
'Cause work and play don't mix
Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?
Big Bad Wolf, Big Bad Wolf
Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?
Fa la la la la
Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?
Henry Hall recorded this song in 1933. "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf" is a popular song written by Frank Churchill with additional lyrics by Ann Ronell, which originally featured in the 1933 Disney cartoon Three Little Pigs. The original song was sung by Fiddler Pig and Fifer Pig (voiced by Mary Moder and Dorothy Compton) as they arrogantly believe their houses of straw and twigs will protect them from the Big Bad Wolf (voiced by Billy Bletcher). The song's theme made it a huge hit during the 1930s and it remains one of the most well-known Disney songs, being covered by numerous artists and musical groups.
