Crow Black Chicken - Ry Cooder

Well, I went on the mountain

And I give my horn a blow

I thought I heard some purty gal say

«Yonder come my beau»

Crow black chicken, crow for a day

Crow black chicken and fly away

Crow black chicken and-a

I like chicken pie

Well, the hardest work that ever I done

Was plowin' a field of rye

The easiest work that ever I done

Was a-eatin' chicken pie

Chicken crow for midnight

And chicken crow for a day

Along come an owl, Lord, have mercy

Stole my chicken away

Crow black chicken and crow for a day

Crow black chicken and fly away

Crow black chicken and-a

I like chicken pie

Crow black chicken, crow for a day

Crow black chicken and fly away

Crow black chicken and-a

I like chicken pie
