One Night farmer brown was takin' the air Locked up the barnyard with the greatest of care Down in the hen house, somebody stirred "who's there?" This is what I heard There ain't nobody here but us chickens There ain't nobody here at all So calm yourself and stop that fuss There ain't nobody here but us We chickens tryin' to sleep and you bust in And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble with your chin There ain't nobody here but us chickens There ain't nobody here at all You're stompin' around and shakin' the ground You're kicking up an awful dust We chicken's tryin' to sleep and you bust in And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble, it's a sin Tomorrow is a busy day We got things to do, we got eggs to lay Worms to dig, ground to scratch And it takes a lot of settin', gettin' chicks to hatch There ain't nobody here but us chickens There ain't nobody here at all So quiet yourself and stop that fuss There ain't nobody here but us Kindly point that gun the other way And hobble, hobble, hobble off and hit the hay
