Carole King - Ballad Of Chicken Soup (The) lyrics

Today our dear friend Chicken soup This very ordinary day Boiled up a pot of Chicken soup And swallowed it away A-lack! A-day! O-woe! Oy-vey! He swallowed it away! Now listen to what I'm gonna say A little bone, a bitty thing No bigger than my pinky He swallowed hot From out that pot In quicker than a winky He gulped that soup Let out a whoop! And fell down croaking On the stoop And he choked! And he sagged! And he smothered! And he gagged! And he let out a scream! And he let out a moan! Then he cried Cause he died From choking on a bone On such an ordinary day Like today A-lack! A-day! O-woe! Oy-vey! On an ordinary day Chicken soup pa**ed away!
