Lyrics

One night farmer Brown was takin' the airs Locked up the barnyard with the greatest of care Down in the hen house, somethin' stirred When he shouted, "Who's there?" This is what he heard "There ain't nobody here but us chickens There ain't nobody here at all So calm yourself and stop that fuss There ain't nobody here but us We chickens tryin' to sleep and you butt in And hobble, hobble hobble hobble with your chin" "There ain't nobody here but us chickens There ain't nobody here at all You're stompin' around and shakin' the ground You're kickin' up an awful dust We chicken's tryin' to sleep and you butt in And hobble, hobble hobble hobble, it's a sin" "Tomorrow is a busy day We got things to do, we got eggs to lay We got ground to dig and worms to scratch It takes a lot of settin', gettin' chicks to hatch" "There ain't nobody here but us chickens There ain't nobody here at all So quiet yourself and stop that fuss There ain't nobody here but us Kindly point that gun the other way And hobble, hobble hobble of and hit the hay" "Hey, tomorrow is a busy day We got things to do, we got eggs to lay We got ground to dig and worms to scratch It takes a lot of settin', gettin' chicks to hatch" "There ain't nobody here but us chickens There ain't nobody here at all So quiet yourself and stop that fuss There ain't nobody here but us And kindly point that gun the other way And hobble, hobble hobble of and hit the hay" "Hey, hey, boss man, what do ya say? It's easy pickings Ain't nobody here but us chickens"
