PICKIN' A CHICKEN
Words by Paddy Roberts, music by Derek Bernfield & Garfield De Mortimer.
As recorded by Eve Boswell, 1955.

Come to the barbecue and sit by my side.
We couldn't choose a better night if we tried.
Can't you imagine what a thrill it will be,
Pickin' a chicken with me?

[§] It's so romantic; the moon up above
Is extra bright on a night such as this.
Pulling a wishbone with someone you love
Is almost certain to end with a kiss.

So come to the barbecue, my darling, my dear.
I'm so in love with you and when you are near
I get a feeling that forever you'll be
Pickin' a chicken with me.

REPEAT FROM §.
