Lyrics

One night farmer Brown was shakin' the air He locked up the barnyard with the greatest of care Down in the henhouse something stirred He shouted "Who's that?" and 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, it's a sin There ain't nobody here but us chickens There ain't nobody here at all You stompin' around, and shakin' the ground And kickin' up an awful dust So point that gun the other way And hobble hobble hobble hobble, hit the hay Tomorrow is a busy day You got brood to raise, you got eggs to lay You got dryin' to do, and worms to squash 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 cock that gun the other way There ain't nobody here but us We chickens tryin' to sleep, and you butt in And hobble hobble hobble hobble, it's a sin Oh, tomorrow is a busy day You got rent to do, you got eggs to lay You got dryin' to do, and worms to squash 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 point that gun the other way And kickin' up an awful fuss We chickens tryin' to sleep, and you butt in And hobble hobble hobble hobble, it's a sin There ain't nobody, nobody here but us chickens now I gotta tell you all I wanna give you a little soul now Leave us alone And oh, can't you leave us alone And I don't bother nobody
