Big Red Rooster (Larry W. Jones 04/27/2008) (song#5402)

Well, I had a big red rooster, he crowed at break of dawn
Yeah, I had a big red rooster, he crowed at break of dawn
But when he heard about my chicken soup, he flew the coop
And now my big red rooster's gone

The chickens in the barnyard are all upset to this day
Yeah, the chickens in the barnyard don't even want to lay
Now, if you see my big red rooster, don't do him no harm
Bring my rooster back to my barn

Dogs are howlin', cats are meowin', the chickens are all sad
Big red rooster was the best boss my barnyard ever had
The chickens are so lost, I ain't got no eggs in the morn
Now that my big red rooster's gone

Dogs are howlin', cats are meowin', the chickens are all sad
Big red rooster was the best boss my barnyard ever had

The chickens in the barnyard are all upset to this day
Yeah, the chickens in the barnyard don't even want to lay
Now, if you see my big red rooster, don't do him no harm
Bring my rooster back to my barn

Yeah, bring my big red rooster right back to my barn
(Ain't got no eggs)
(Need a morale booster for them chickens!)
(Dang rooster flew the coop)
