Little Red Rooster

All right, listen now at this time I would like to introduce a
Friend of ours
A very talented guy named John Sebastian. Come on man
Man, that's what I call a New York joint, man!
You can pick your teeth with a New York joint!
Well, I'm the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow the day
Little red rooster
Too lazy to crow the day
Keep everything in the barnyard
Upset in every way
Dogs begin to bark
The hounds begin to howl
Dogs begin to bark and
The hounds begin to howl
Look out strange cat people
The rooster's on the prowl
Yeah, dogs begin to bark
The hounds begin to howl
Dogs begin to bark
The hounds begin to howl
Look out strange cat people
Yeah, the rooster's on the prowl
If you see my rooster
Come on man, drive him home
See my rooster, babe
Come on man, drive him home
Ain't been no peace in the barnyard
Since my little red rooster been gone
Well, I'm the little red rooster, babe
Too lazy to crow the day
Well, I'm the little red rooster, babe
Too lazy to crow the day
Keep everything in the barnyard
Upset in every way
