Chickens Lyrics



This song has to do with the depression



We had some chickens

No eggs would they lay

My wife said honey

This isn’t funny, we’re losing money

Why don’t the little chickens lay



One day a rooster came into our yard

And caught those little chickens

Right off their guard

They're laying eggs now just like they used to

Ever since that rooster came into our yard

They're laying eggs now just like they used to

Ever since that rooster came into our yard
