From 'Worldwide Mud' Released in 1996

lyrics

Early mornin', scratch for seed
Gobble up the chicken feed
Suppertime whatcha got
Momma put the bird right in the pot

Frog and a chicken went courtin’ yesterday
“Say pretty Hen we’ll marry someday”
Here come the farmer, Wrung the bird’s neck
“I eats my chicken in an alphabet; soup that is”

There was a hen her name was Sadie
I know she made good gravy
Butter biscuits, Collard greens
Sweet Potatoes and black-eyed peas

Late last night come the prodigal son
Left with plenty, returned with none
Fat the calf, tap the keg
He come back home for the chicken leg

There was a rooster, red and yella
He was a very mellow fella
‘Til his thigh caught mommas eye
Here he is in the chicken pie
