Hen Layin' Rooster

I'm a hen layin' rooster

And my feathers don't match.

Birds fly and I see

I'm sure enough going to snatch!

I'm a hen layin' rooster

And my feathers don't match.

Birds fly and I see

I'm sure enough going to snatch!

Pick 'em up, lay 'em down

Like I used ta'...

I'm the baddest hen layin' rooster...

Cockle-a-doodle-y-doo...

I'm a hen layin' rooster

Through and through.

Headin' down to the barnyard

Behind the henhouse patch.

First layin' hen that step out

Gonna' get her feathers snatched.

Headin' down to the barnyard

Behind the henhouse patch.

First layin' hen that step out

She gonna' get her feathers snatched.

Pick 'em up, lay 'em down

Like I used to...

I'm the baddest hen layin' rooster...

Cockle-a-doodle-doo...

I'm a hen layin' rooster

Through and through.

If I don't find me no hen

I'll take me a turkey or chicken

Or...

If the barnyard's dead again...

I'll pull me a goose

With a little sweet talk.

If I can't find me no hen

Take me a turkey or chicken

Or...

If the barnyard's dead again...

Pull a goose

And make her squawk.

Pick 'em up, lay 'em down

Like I used to...

I'm the baddest hen layin' rooster...

Cockle-a-doodle-doo...

I'm a hen layin' rooster

Through and through.

When the henhouse burnt

Right on down to the ground...

You know I wasn't concerned

I was in another henhouse

Way 'cross town!

When the hens all split

From that burnt-out chicken coop...

I was doin' my bit

(I never quit)...

Knockin' 'em all for a loop.

Pick 'em up, lay 'em down

Like I used ta'...

I'm the baddest hen layin' rooster...

Cockle-a-doodle-y-doo...

I'm a hen layin' rooster

Through and through.
