Cousin Joe - Chicken A-La-Blues lyrics

I ate so many hot dogs Couldn't look a cold dog in the face I ate so many hot dogs Couldn't look a cold dog in the face I had them in chilli gravy And I ate them in tomato paste Down in New Orleans In the place where I was born Down in New Orleans In the place where I was born I ate so many chickens Till their flocks all in my bones Sunday, I got fried chicken Monday, chicken a la king Tuesday, chicken giblets And Wednesday chicken wings Thursday chicken frica**ee Friday, chicken stew Saturday, scrambled eggs And you know that's chicken too No more hot dogs Those days are clearly gone Now, I eat so many chicken Until their flocks all in my bones
