Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Here's one line I remember
All the rest, I forget
Somethin' about strokin' the rooster
Settin' up a crooked bet
[Verse 2]
No concern of my own
What you do, do or don't do
We got all this, haven't you?
Tie me down and paint me blue
[Verse 3]
Don't need a shot, don't need a booster
Ladies of the jury, stroke my rooster
I don't complain, it's not in my nature
Take my milkshake straight, no chaser
[Verse 4]
Rooster rag, rooster rag
End up doin' that rooster rag
End up doin' that, end up doin' that
End up doin' that rooster rag
[Verse 5]
No, hoes, don't you stroke that rooster
Step on back, step on back
It just serves to make him looser
Treat him right and he'll cut you slack
[Verse 6]
Tubal-cain was the god of fire
He got doused, first good rain
Crossed the sea in a Goodyear tire
Wired up tight, feelin' no pain
[Verse 7]
Kings of creation, in strict rotation
Strokin' the rooster Saturday night
Flirtin' with loss of reputation
Paid vacation where dogs don't bite
[Verse 8]
Rooster rag, rooster rag
End up doin' that rooster rag
End up doin' that, end up doin' that
End up doin' that rooster rag
[Verse 9]
A whoop-whoop
A whoop-whoop
[Verse 10]
No excuses, no regrets
Got back what I put out
Callin' in all my crooked bets
'Cept them few that's still in doubt
[Verse 11]
Leave this old world a better place
Paper chase, what a waste
Cut off throw switch just in case
You bite off more than a taste
[Verse 12]
Don't need a shot, don't need a booster
Ladies of the jury, stroke my rooster
I don't complain, it's not in my nature
Take my milkshake straight, no chaser
[Verse 13]
Rooster rag, rooster rag
End up doin' that rooster rag
End up doin' that, end up doin' that
End up doin' that rooster rag
Rooster rag, rooster rag
End up doin' that rooster rag
End up doin' that, end up doin' that
End up doin' that rooster rag, yeah
Yeah
