Alabama Chicken Songtext
von Sean Hayes

Possum trot
Copper ring round
And the dog needs something to eat
Old Ned Berry in a Cadillac hearse
Down a Birmingham street
Spoon man′s here, and the folk man's near
Snake charm in between
Five fellow freaks in a Cadillac hearse
Down a Birmingham street

Alabama Chicken, show me the way
Alabama Chicken, got something to say
Look him in the eye
Bird don′t lie
Alabama chicken
Voodoo, booday
Voodoo, booday


Blue bottle fly
A fish is on the wall
And the pot's got a scary face
Old Ned Berry spinning his wheel
On a Birmingham day

Bottle top drum
And a horse head with rust
The bird done lost its beak
Blow your horn for a green dinosaur
On a Birmingham street

Alabama Chicken, show me the way
Alabama Chicken, got something to say
Look him in the eye
Bird don't lie
Alabama chicken
Voodoo, booday
Voodoo, booday

Old James Brown
Came to get down
Old James Brown
Old James Brown
Came to get down


Blow your horn, the fork man′s coming
Blow your horn, the fork man
Blow your horn, the fork man′s coming
Blow your horn, the fork man

Alabama chicken, show me the way
Alabama chicken, got something to say
Look him in the eye
Bird don't lie
Alabama chicken
Voodoo, booday
Voodoo, booday

Cluck old hen
Cluck I said
You the best hen that ever laid an egg
Sometimes one, sometimes two
Sometimes enough for the whole crew*

Alabama chicken, show me the way
Alabama chicken, got something to say
Look him in the eye
Bird don′t lie
Alabama chicken
Voodoo, booday
Voodoo, booday

Cluck old hen
Cluck I said
You the best hen that ever laid an egg
Sometimes one, sometimes two
Sometimes enough for the whole crew*
