Little Red Rooster

I got a little red rooster, Too lazy to crow for day I got a little red rooster, Too lazy to crow for day He keeps everything in the barnyard, Upset in every way The dogs begin to bark The hounds begin to howl The dogs begin to bark now, The hounds begin to howl Watch out all you kin folk My little red rooster's on the prowl I tell you that he, keeps all the hens Fighting among themselves Keeps all the hens Fighting among themselves He don't want no hen in the barnyard Laying eggs for nobody else Let me tell everybody, now if you see my red rooster Send him home Said, if you see my red rooster Send him home I had no peace in the barnyard Since my red rooster's been gone --- Little Red Rooster - Sam Cooke
