"Chicken Road"
not only is the ultimate chicken song, it's a better pop song
than most on the radio today.

Old Mr.
Mackle Hackle


Where
did this song come from?
To tell
the truth, I was afraid this song was just too silly to put
on the record. I'd written it years ago, and it tickled me (obviously-
why else would I write it?), but I'd been ashamed to show it
to anyone. I gave my wife a sneak peak and she loved it. I tried
it on a few more friends - apparently its appeal is way more
universal than I'd thought! This experience has given me the
courage to be sillier in all aspects of my life. The courage
to be silly - my next book, from Random House.

Chicken
Road
realaudio mp3
Take a walk
down Chicken Road
Chick, chick, chick, chick Chicken Road
Strut your stuff and lighten your load
Take a walk down Chicken Road
Say Hello
to Farmer Johnson
Farmer Dave and Farmer Smoot
They all moved here from Wisconsin
To cash in on the chicken loot
Chicken cash
is for the taking
Spend all you want, there's always more
Anything you want with chicken
You'll find it at the chicken store
There's chicken
pickles, chicken gum
Chicken juice and chicken candy
Chicken fruit and chicken pork chops
Chicken wine and chicken brandy
Everything is chicken there
There's chicken shampoo for your hair
There's chicken lipstick, chicken shoes
There's chicken gossip and chicken news
In chicken
temples and chicken churches
They pray in pews and up on perches
Upstairs in the gallery
The chicken choir sings harmony
Take a walk
down chicken road
Chick-chic-chic-chic-a-chicken road
Strut your stuff and lighten your load
Take a walk down chicken road
Take a walk down chicken
Take a walk down chicken
Take a walk down chicken, chicken road
Take a walk down chicken road
Chick-chic-chic-chic-a-chicken road
Strut your stuff and lighten your load
Take a walk down chicken road
There's chicken
babies, chicken grown-ups
Chicken music, chicken doughnuts
Chicken windows, chicken doors
There's chicken houses with chicken floors
There's chicken doctors, chicken nurses
When things go wrong there's chicken curses
There's chicken noodles, chicken soups
There's chickens playing guitars in groups
There's chicken littles, chicken bigs
There's chickens wearing feather wigs
There's a chicken smile and a chicken grin
There's a chicken takin' it on the chin
There's chickens rich and chickens poor
There's a chicken who looks like Leslie Gore
There's a chicken language, a chicken tongue
There's an old spring chicken who's already sprung
There's chicken left and chicken right
There's a tough young chicken who's pickin a fight
There's chicken desire and chicken delite
There's chickens on ground and chickens in flight
There's chickens dull and chickens bright
Whatever you want in a chicken, it's there
And when you
feel you've had your fill
Of all this chicken stuff
Just walk back out the way you came
Just say 'I've had enough'
Take a walk
down chicken road
Chick-chic-chic-chic-a-chicken road
Strut your stuff and lighten your load
Take a walk down chicken road
Take a walk down chicken, chicken road
Take a walk down chicken road
Chick-chic-chic-chic-a-chicken road
Strut your stuff and lighten your load
Take a walk down chicken road
