The Rooster Song

There was an old lady from Houston

She had two hens and a rooster

Her rooster died, the old lady cried

"My hens don't lay like they used to!"

Ain't that a shame

Ain't that a shame

Ain't that a shame

She lost a helping hand

Her next door neighbor O' Cappy

He seems to be very happy

He can play in his corn, they will grow long

Cause the old rooster is gone

Ain't that a shame

Ain't that a shame

Ain't that a shame

She lost a helping hand

I know a lady named Sue

Her rooster died too

She didn't sigh, she didn't cry

She made her a pot of stew

Ain't that a shame

Ain't that a shame

Ain't that a shame

She lost a helping hand

There was an old lady from Houston

She had two hens and a rooster

Her rooster…
