How to keep your chickens laying.
LYRIC
Chickens
We had some chickens, no eggs would they lay
We had some chickens, no eggs would they lay
My wife said, “Honey, we’re losing money
This isn’t funny, why don’t they lay”
One day a rooster came into our yard
He caught those chickens right off their guard
We had some chickens, no eggs would they lay
My wife said, “Honey, we’re losing money
This isn’t funny, why don’t they lay”
One day a rooster came into our yard
He caught those chickens right off their guard
They’re layin’ eggs now, just like they used t’
Ever since that rooster came into our yard
They’re layin’ eggs now, just like they used t’
Ever since that rooster came into our yard
Our chickens lay now a dozen a day
Yes every darn chicken lays a dozen a day
My wife said, “Honey, we’re makin’ money
It’s really funny how those chickens lay”
Poor roosters dead now, we’ve laid him away
But his son is makin’ those pullets lay
They’re layin’ eggs now, just like they used t’
Ever since that rooster came into our yard
They’re layin’ eggs now, just like they used t’
Ever since that rooster came into our yard
