Hello, Hello
people,
they call me Super Chicken,
I'm just a po' boy from
down in Mississippi,
I used to raise chicken,
I used to talk to chicken,
Lord knows I used to eat a lot of chicken,
but one thing about it,
I didn't eat my own chicken.
I used to talk to my chicken,
used to play with my chicken,
never choked one of my chickens.
Missed a good dinner one Sunday
My rooster was missing
and momma had chicken for dinner
And I wouldn't eat
We only ate one meal a day
And momma wanted me to eat real bad
But I wouldn't eat,
because Benny was missing
She said, boy,
you better come on in here and eat
You're gonna starve to death
I said, Mama, please, Mama, please
Mama, please don't
cook my rooster
Mama, don't cook my rooster
Cause he don't crow
like he used to
Mama said, babe,
I wouldn't cook your rooster
I said, well, he ain't on the yard
She said, he probably out
coldin' somewhere
But I was sad, Mama was sad,
cause I wouldn't eat
Finally my rooster showed up
Had such a gleam in my eye
Mama got one in her
Mama's eyes was shinin'
like a crystal ball
She said, now my baby can come on in and
eat
She got eyes like a crystal ball
I'm tryin' to tell all of y 'all
She got eyes like a crystal ball
When I'm looking in her eyes
Makes me ten foot tall
When I'm looking in her eyes,
you know I'm on the ball
Well, it's a little bit different
than looking in the mirror on the wall
You better listen to me,
I'm trying to tell all of y 'all
When I'm looking in her eyes,
you know I'm on the ball
When I'm looking in her eyes,
makes me ten foot tall
Well, it's a little bit different
than looking in the mirror on the wall
When I'm looking in the mirror,
I see a little red house
An d a little white picket fence
One look into her eyes,
I've been hooked ever since
She got eyes like a crystal ball,
I can see my future
Shit, y 'all!
Shoot that thing!
