Cluck Old Hen

My old hen's a good old hen
She laid eggs for the railroad men
Sometimes one, sometimes two
She lays eggs for the whole damn crew

Cluck, old hen, cluck and sing
Ain't laid an egg since way last spring
Cluck, old hen, you cluck and squall
Ain't laid an egg since way last fall

My old hen made a great big fuss
Wake up mama and it's making her cuss
Peck and squall, cackle and strut
I think everybody hates her guts

Cluck, old hen, you cluck and sing
Ain't laid an egg since way last spring
Cluck, old hen, you cluck and squall
Ain't laid an egg since way last fall

My old hen's a mean old hen
Keep her locked in a barbwire pen
Lost me work, cost me corn
Scratching at dirt the whole day long

Cluck, old hen, cluck, I say
Cluck, old hen, all day you'll lay
Cluck, old hen, lay, I scorn
Cluck, old hen, oh, you'll soon be gone
