RWilhelm Lyr Req: Chicken Oh Chicken (9) RE: Lyr Req: Chicken Oh Chicken 19 Jul 01


The version from the link was recorded by Frank Stokes in the 1920's. According to _Saints and Songsters_ by Paul Oliver it is a version of "There is No Chicken That Can Roost Too High For Me" by W.J. Simons, published in 1899. That must be the minstrel song from rich r's reference. I'd love to see those lyrics.
