[Chorus]
I am the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day
I am the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day
[Verse 1]
Keep everything in the farm yard upset in every way
The dogs begin to bark and hounds begin to howl
Dogs begin to bark and hounds begin to howl
Watch out strange cat people
Little red rooster's on the prowl
[Chorus]
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
[Outro]
I had no peace in the farm yard
Since my little red rooster's been gone
I am the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day
I am the little red rooster
Too lazy to crow for day
[Verse 1]
Keep everything in the farm yard upset in every way
The dogs begin to bark and hounds begin to howl
Dogs begin to bark and hounds begin to howl
Watch out strange cat people
Little red rooster's on the prowl
[Chorus]
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
[Outro]
I had no peace in the farm yard
Since my little red rooster's been gone
