I don't mind telling this whole wide world Someone's doin' me wrong I don't be able to catch on yet But they gonna get catched for long Now whoever this someone may be Take a little tip from me Stay away from my chicken house, boys If you figure your life's worthwhile Stay away from my chicken house, boys Or I cut you down Mexican style I got a long keen raiser A bulldog too You'll never look like nothing
When I get through with you Now you're not invisible as still as a mouse So stay away from my chicken house, I mean it So stay away from my chicken house! (Yodelahee) You stole my horse, you stole my cow You took hay from my barn You k**ed my hogs for meat last fall You even stole my corn Now for all of this, boys I won't complain But I'm sticking with them chicken Through sunshine and rain
