Gingerbread Land

It’s the gingerbread man  
In a gingerbread land
In his gingerbread house  
With a gingerbread spouse
But he’s hiding from the little old woman and man
They baked him in their oven  
Until he popped out and ran
He ran past the pig, the horse and the cow
They all wanted to take a bite and eat him up now
“Run, Run, Run” said the gingerbread man  
“Can’t catch me” he yelled at the little old man  
He made it to a river but he could not swim  
“Oh what’ll I do now?!” His future looks dim
Until a Fox came along and offered his help
He promised not to eat him “Please take my help!”
So the gingerbread man got across safe and sound  
The fox said goodbye and then turned around  
Stunned and surprised felt the gingerbread man  
He was safe in his merry town again called gingerbread land
He hopped and he skipped into his gingerbread house  
In the comforting arms of his gingerbread spouse
Hiding and surviving remained the gingerbread man  
“Can’t catch me cause I’m in my Gingerbread Land!”
