Philadelphia Chickens
Well, I'm coming from
Connecticut on I-95,
heading toward the sunset
on the East River Drive
to the pretty little city
on the Delaware-
the Philadelphia Chickens
are sure to be there.
Oh, the Philadelphia Chickens
will be dancing tonight,
thousands of chickens
in the pale moonlight
They can't sit still
when the trumpets play--
Strike up the band
and get out of the way.
Here come those
Philadelphia Chickens!
Swing, slide, and roll.
Philadelphia Chickens!
Up, over, and stroll.
If you want to start
moving like anything,
find a Philadlephia Chicken
to teach you to swing.
Connecticut on I-95,
heading toward the sunset
on the East River Drive
to the pretty little city
on the Delaware-
the Philadelphia Chickens
are sure to be there.
Oh, the Philadelphia Chickens
will be dancing tonight,
thousands of chickens
in the pale moonlight
They can't sit still
when the trumpets play--
Strike up the band
and get out of the way.
Here come those
Philadelphia Chickens!
Swing, slide, and roll.
Philadelphia Chickens!
Up, over, and stroll.
If you want to start
moving like anything,
find a Philadlephia Chicken
to teach you to swing.
