Ain’t Nobody Here But Us Chickens

Alex Kramer, Joan Whitney Kramer

[Verse 1]
One night farmer Brown was taking the air
And I locked up the barnyard with the greatest of care
Down in the hen house something stirred
When he shouted, "Who's there?"
This is what he heard

[Chorus 1]
There isn't nobody here but us chickens
There isn't nobody here at all
So calm yourself and stop that fuss
There isn't nobody here but us

[Chorus 2]
We chickens trying to sleep and you butt in
And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble, it's a sin
There isn't nobody here but us chickens
There isn't nobody here at all

[Verse 2]
You're stomping around and shaking the ground
Kicking up an awful dust
So point that gun the other way
And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble, hit the hay

[Chorus 3]
Tomorrow is a busy day
We got ground to dig, we got eggs to lay
We got ground to dig and worms to scratch
It takes a lot of sitting, getting chicks to hatch

[Chorus 1]
There isn't nobody here but us chickens
There isn't nobody here at all
So point that gun the other way
There isn't nobody here but us

[Chorus 2]
We're chickens trying to sleep and you bust in
And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble, it's a sin
Hey, hey, hey, I got to poop

[Chorus 3]
Oh, tomorrow is a busy day
We got things to do, we got eggs to lay
We got ground to dig and worms to scratch
It takes a lot of sitting, getting chicks to hatch

[Chorus 1]
There isn't nobody here but us chickens
There isn't nobody here at all
Point that gun the other way
And kick it up an awful fuss

[Chorus 2]
We're chickens trying to sleep and you butt in
And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble, it's a sin

[Outro]
Isn't nobody, nobody here but us chicken now
I got to tell you all
I want to give a little soul now
Leave us alone, alone, can't you leave us alone?
And I don't bother nobody
