The Rooster

We had some chickens, no eggs would they lay
We had some chickens, no eggs would they lay
The wife said, "Honey, we're losing money (oh yeah)
Because that chickens, no eggs would they lay"

Then came a rooster into her yard
And he caught them chickens right off of their guards
They're laying eggs now like they never used to
Since that rooster came into her yard

We had a moo-cow, no milk would she give
We had a moo-cow, no milk would she give
The wife said, "Honey, we're losing money (oh yeah)
Because that moo-cow, no milk would she gives"

Then came a rooster into her yard
And he caught that moo-cow right off of her guard
She's giving yogurts like she never used to
Since that rooster came into her yard

Then came a rooster into her yard
And he caught that moo-cow right off of her guard
She's giving yogurts like she never used to
Since that rooster came into her yard

We had an elephant, no tusk would he grow
We had an elephant, no tusk would he grow
The wife said, "Honey, we're losing money (oh yeah)
Because that elephant, no tusk would he grow"

Then came a rooster into her yard
And he caught that elephant right off of his guards
He's laying eggs now of a solid ivory
Since that rooster came into her yard

We had a rooster, he was awfully gay
We had a rooster, he was funny that way
The wife said, "Honey, we're losing, money (oh yeah)
Because that rooster was funny that way"

Then came a chicken into her yard
And she caught that rooster right off of his guards
He's laying eggs now like he never used to
Since that chicken came into her yard

He's laying eggs now like he never used to
Since that chicken came into her yard
