I'm looking for the words to a blues called Chickens by Hayes Carll and Ray Wylie Hubbard. I've heard Hayes sing iton a couple of occasions and found scraps of the song running through my head the last few days. Anyone know the words? |

All I can do is to make a slight improvement on your quote. This is pieced together from a couple of sound samples and quotes found on the Internet: I got chickens in my front yard. What they do is scratch and peck. I got chickens in my front yard. What they do is scratch and they peck. Come suppertime, I'll go out there, find me one, and wring its neck. It ain't meanness, y'all. It's just hungry's what I am. (2x) Ain't nothing in this world like fried chicken. Yes, ma'am. |
