Cluck old hen, cluck and squall
You ain't had an egg since away last fall
MyoId hen, she won't do
She lays eggs for the railroad crew
Sometimes eight, sometimes ten
All these eggs for the railroad men
My old hen she laid in the loft
Went to eat the egg and I couldn't get her off
Cluck old hen, cluck and sing
You ain't had an egg since away last spring
Old hen cackled, cackled in the lot
The next time she cackled, she cackled in the pot
