Subject: My chicken ran way to the bush From: GUEST,Annie T. Date: 31 Oct 09 - 02:46 PM I'm trying to find the lyrics to this song by Burl Ives. It's on a cd collection of his called Little bitty tear, the nashville years. I can't find the lyrics...and I can't even seem to buy the download. I keep having problems. any old calypso singers out there? |

Subject: RE: Lyr Req: My Chicken Ran 'Way to the Bush (B Ives) From: Jim Dixon Date: 14 Dec 10 - 10:30 PM The US Copyright Office says MY CHICKEN RAN 'WAY TO THE BUSH was written by Mel Tillis & John C. Parks in 1963. Burl Ives recorded it on an LP called "Singin' Easy" Decca DL-4433, 1963. I couldn't find any lyrics or sound files online. |
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: My Chicken Ran 'Way to the Bush From: GUEST,999 Date: 14 Sep 12 - 10:52 AM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GajAy_mWmw Ives sings it there. He seems to try an island accent. However, the lyrics are clear for the purpose of getting the lyrics. |
