Chuck Jackson The Jive Bombers Follow

Locked up the barnyard with the greatest of care
Into the henhouse something stirred
When he hollered "Who's there?"
This is what he heard

There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't nobody here at all
So quiet yourself , stop all that fuss
There ain't nobody here but us
Hey, kindly point that gun, the other way
And hobble, hobble, hobble till the break of day

'Cause there ain't nobody here but us chickens
Sure way, no-one at all
An' you stompin' around, and a-shakin' the ground
Well, you're kickin' up an awful dust
We chickens tryin' to sleep and you butt in
And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble, it's a sin

'Cause 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 sittin', gettin' chicks to hatch

There ain't nobody here but us chickens
Sure way, nobody at all
So quiet yourself, enough of that fuss
There ain't nobody, nobdoy, nobody but us
Kindly point the gun the other way
And hobble, hobble, hobble till the break of day

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 sittin', gettin' chicks to hatch

So quiet yourself, enough of that fuss
There ain't nobody, nobdoy, nobody but us
Kindly point the gun the other way
And hobble, hobble, hobble till the break of day

"Hey, hey boss man, what do you say?"
"It's easy, pickin's
"There ain't nobody here but us chickens."
