Song Lyrics

One night farmer brown was takin' the air
Locked up the barnyard with the greatest of care
And to the hen house something stirred
And he hollered, "who's there?"
This is what he heard

There ain't nobody here but us chickens
Ain't nobody here at all
So quiet yourself, stop all that fuss
There ain't nobody here but us
He kindly point that gun the other way
And hobble, hobble, hobble off and hit the hay

There ain't nobody here but us chickens
Ain't nobody here at all
You's stompin' around and shakin' the ground
You're kicking up an awful dust
We chickens tryin' to sleep and you butt in
And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble, whiggle chin

'Cause tomorrow is a busy day
We got things to do, we got eggs to lay
'Round the dig and worms to scratch
It takes a lot of settin', gettin' chicks to hatch

There ain't nobody here but us chickens
Nobody at all
So quiet yourself stop all that fuss
There ain't nobody here but us
He kindly point that gun the other way
And hobble, hobble, hobble off and hit the hay

Well tomorrow is a busy day
We got things to do, we got eggs to lay
'Round the dig and worms to scratch
Its a lot of set gettin' chicks to hatch
Takes a lot of settin', gettin' chicks to hatch

And ain't nobody here but us roosters
Ain't nobody at all
So quiet yourself and stop all that fuss
There ain't nobody here but us
And kindly point that gun the other way
And hobble, hobble, hobble til the break of day

Hey boss man now what you say
Its easy pickin's ain't nobody here but us chickens oh yeah
Yeah
