Too lazy to crow today
I am the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow today
Keep everything in the farm yard upset in every way*
The dogs begin to bark and hounds begin to howl
Dogs begin to bark and hounds begin to howl
Watch out strange cat people
Little red rooster's on the prowl
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
Ain't had no peace in the farm yard
Since my little red rooster's been gone
(*The original recording by Willie Dixon has it as:
*Keeps everything in the farm yard, either settin' or ready to lay.)
