Chicken Coop - Reneé Austin

Written by：Renee Austin/Kevin Bowe

Early in the morning 'fore the crack of dawn

I heard him sneaking in

He'd been here at sundown but didn't stay long

Cause I can smell the sin

Later that next evening again I found him gone

With our money tin

So I played a little game of sherlock holmes

To find out where he'd been

Lord have mercy what am I to do

Smack dab in the middle of town

Cross the road about a mile or two

I found my rooster making hay

With the ladies painted ladies

Of the local chicken coop

Later that night I hatched myself a plan

The idea made me grin

To beat him at his own game I'd have to play dirty

If I was gonna win

To the coop right on time imagine his surprise

As he walked on in

There I sat feathers paint a lady of the coop

With a sip a gin

I said quit your cheatin' ain't no need you see

Never never never never again

I'll be what you need daytime nighttime

Two women under just one skin

Lord have mercy what am I to do

Smack dab in the middle of town

Cross the road about a mile or two

I found my rooster making hay

With the ladies painted ladies

Of the local chicken coop

Now honey if that cock a doodle doo does fly

Somebody chicken of the night

You can bet I'll give him a peck

Right square in the eye

And when I get my wings on him

I'll ring his neck alright real tight

And no matter how loud he cries

He's gonna rest in peace right next to some greasy fries

Lord lord have mercy what am I to do

Smack dab in the middle of town

Cross the road about a mile or two

I found my rooster making hay

With the ladies painted ladies

Of the local chicken coop

Listen I get two words for you pot pie fried steak noodle soup

Am I making myself clear

Don't you give me none of your

Cock a doodle doo

You do this to me again and I'll cocka doodle your do

Don't you need think I won't

Don't make me cross the road and come get you

Cause you know I will
