I had a little red rooster, too lazy to crow for day
I had a little red rooster, too lazy to crow for day
Keep everything in the barnyard, upset in every way
Oh, them dogs begin to bark, hounds begin to howl
Oh, them dogs begin to bark, hounds begin to howl
Oh, watch out strange kin people, little red rooster's on the prowl
If you see my little red rooster, please drag him on home
If you see my little red rooster, please drag him on home
There ain't no peace in the barnyard since my little red rooster's been gone


Little Red Rooster - by Willie Dixon
recording of 1962 by Chester Burnett a.k.a. Howlin' Wolf
