Lyrics

Oh I had a little chicky She wouldn't lay an egg I poured hot water up and down her leg And the little chicky cried And the little chicky begged And the gosh darn chicky laid a hard boiled egg Turkey in the straw (Ha, ha, ha) Turkey in the straw (Ha, ha, ha) The old folks dance with the mother-in-law As they play a little tune they call turkey in the straw Oh I had another chicky She wouldn't lay an egg I poured a bus up and down her leg And the little chicky cried And the little chicky begged And the gosh darn chicky laid a busted egg Turkey in the straw (Ha, ha, ha) Turkey in the straw (Ha, ha, ha) The old folks dance with the mother-in-law As they play a little tune they call turkey in the straw Did you ever go a-fishing on a sunny, sunny day? When all the little fishes are a-swimming in the bay With their hands in their pockets And their pockets in their pants And all the little fishes do the hoochie-coochie dance Turkey in the straw (Ha, ha, ha) Turkey in the straw (Ha, ha, ha) The old folks dance with the mother-in-law As they play a little tune they call turkey in the straw Oh I went to Chibougamou I walked around the block And I walked right into a bakery shop And I took three donuts off of the grease And I handed the lady a five cent piece Well, she looked at the nickel She looked at me And she said, "This nickel's no good to me There's a hole in the middle I can see right through" Says I, "There's a hole in the donut too" Shave and a haircut (Six bits) Tip the barber (Two bits) Altogether (One buck) My cousin Jules got big feet But my friend Franz got him beat Turkey in the straw (Ha, ha, ha) Turkey in the straw (Ha, ha, ha) The old folks dance with the mother-in-law As they play a little tune they call turkey in the straw Jump in the breadbox (You flop)
