There’s chickens in the trees my darlin
There’s chicken’s in the trees my son
They’ve been there since 3
They’re shakin’ at their knees
I wonder what they’re seein’ up from up there
There’s horses in the kitchen my darlin’
There’s horses in the kitchen my son
They’ve been there since 4
They’ve locked all the doors
I wonder what they’re cookin’ up in there
There’s a pig on the tractor my darlin’
There’s a pig on the tractor my son
He’s been there since 5
Where’d he learn to drive
I wonder what he’s plowin’ out there
There’s a rooster in the cellar my darlin’
There’s a rooster in the cellar my son
He’s been there since 6
He’s still lickin’ his lips
I wonder what he’s drinkin’ down there
There’s a cow in the outhouse my darlin’
There’s a cow in the outhouse my son
She's been there since 7
I ain’t goin’ smellin’
I wonder what she’s readin’ in there
