[Intro]
I was down in the hen house
And on me knees
I thought I heard the chicken sneeze
It was only the rooster saying his prayers
Thanking the Lord for the Hens upstairs
[Verse 1]
We had some chickens no eggs would they lay
We had some chickens no eggs would they lay
O' the wife said honey we're loosing money oh yeah
Because them chickens no eggs would they lay
[Chorus]
N.C.
Then came a rooster into our yard
And he caught them chickens right off of their guard
They're laying eggs now like they never used to
Since that rooster came into our yard
[Verse 2]
N.C.
We had a moo cow no milk would she give
We had a moo cow no milk would they give
O' the wife said honey we're loosing money oh yeah
Because that moo cow no milk would she give
[Chorus]
N.C.
Then came a rooster into our yard
He caught that moo cow right off of her guard
She's giving yoghurt like she never used to
Since that rooster came into our yard
[Verse 3]
N.C. D
We had an elephant
And no tusks would he grow
We had a elephant
And no tusks would he grow
The wife said honey we're loosing money (Oh yeah)
Because that elephant no tusks would he grow
[Chorus]
N.C.
Then came a rooster into our yard
He caught that elephant right off of his guard
He's laying eggs now out of solid ivory
Since that rooster came into our yard
[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
N.C.
We had a rooster he was awfully gay
We had a rooster he was funny that way
O' the wife said honey we're loosing money oh yeah
Because that rooster he's funny that way
[Chorus]
N.C.
Then came a chicken into our yard
And she caught that rooster right off of his guard
He's laying hens now like he never used to
Since that chicken came into our yard

In to the yard, in to the yard bum bum
