Thread Name: ID SINGER: Chicken Of The Sea
Subject: Lyr Add: THE CHICKEN OF THE SEA
The Chicken Of The Sea Writer/Singer TBD
In the hills of Tennessee, that is where I long to be Where the trees are tall, the roads are rough and rocky And a little house stands there, rottin' down from lack of care It's a dream house of this Chicken Of The Sea
There was Stella that I dated, till she made a big mistake Then she said the two of us, would soon be three So I packed my bag and left her, joined the Navy, saw the world Now they call me the Chicken Of The Sea
I dream about her often and the baby that we had And I long most every hour, just to go back home and see If we can't start a new life, live the way a man should live I can't do it, I'm the Chicken Of The Sea
In the lonely ports I'll anchor with it always on my mind And a baby's cry will tear the heart from me Is it pride or lack of courage, am I only half a man And the answer is I'm the Chicken Of The Sea
TAG: And the answer is, I'm the Chicken Of The Sea
