[Verse 1]
I have a little red rooster, too lazy to crow for days
I have a little red rooster, too lazy to crow for days
And they keep everything in the barnyard, upset in every way

[Verse 2]
When the dogs begin to bark now, the hounds begin to howl
When the dogs begin to bark now, the hounds begin to howl
Watch out stray cat people, the little red rooster's on the prowl

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
If you see my little red rooster, won't you please drive him home
If you see amylittle red rooster, please, please drive him home
Been no peace in the barnyard, people, since my little red rooster's been gone

[Instrumental Break]

[Outro]
I have a little red rooster, too lazy to crow for days
I have a little red rooster, too lazy, lazy to crow for days
And they keep everything in the barnyard, people, upset in every way
