I'm had a little red rooster
Too lazy to crow the day
I'm had a little red rooster
Too lazy to crow the day
Picked up everything in the barnyard
Either settled or ready to lay
You know the dogs begin to bark
The hounds they begin to howl
You know dogs the begin to bark
And the hounds they begin to howl
You know my little red rooster's gone
Lord, the little red rooster's on the prowl
Now if you see my little red rooster
Somebody, please drive him home
Now, if you see my little red rooster
Somebody, please run him home
There ain't been no peace in the barnyard
Since my little red rooster's been gone
