God almighty, these stubborn hens won’t lay no egg, I beg 'em on my knees, man, I beg and I beg! I give 'em premium feed, boy, the best in the land, But they just cluck around and leave me empty-handed, man! God almighty, these stubborn hens won’t lay no egg, I beg 'em on my knees, man, I beg and I beg! I give 'em premium feed, boy, the best in the land, But they just cluck around and leave me empty-handed, man! Wake up every mornin' with the heavy sun, Checkin' on my coops, y'all, lookin' for just one! Nothin' in the straw, man, nothin' but some dust, These lazy doggone birds are a total, total bust! I bought the fancy corn, spent a fortune at the store, I begged 'em "please, darlin's, give a cowboy four!" They looked me in the eye and they gave a little scratch, Lord, these pretty ladies just refuse to make a hatch! Lord, these pretty ladies just refuse to make a hatch! God almighty, these stubborn hens won’t lay no egg, I beg 'em on my knees, man, I beg and I beg! I give 'em premium feed, boy, the best in the land, But they just cluck around and leave me empty-handed, man! Then late last Tuesday night, came a sneaky little red, A foxy little thief lookin' to get well-fed! She broke into the wire, gave a mighty, scary growl, And all my lazy chickens started makin' quite a howl! I ran out with my lantern, thinkin' they were dead, But I saw a golden miracle inside that chicken bed! Out of pure, clean terror, man, the feathers started flyin', And dozens of white eggs hit the floor, I ain’t lyin'! And dozens of white eggs hit the floor, I ain’t lyin'! God almighty, these stubborn hens won’t lay no egg, I beg 'em on my knees, man, I beg and I beg! I give 'em premium feed, boy, the best in the land, But they just cluck around and leave me empty-handed, man! I caught that sneaky fox, got a leash upon her neck, Now we walk into the coop and we do a little check! I don't need no feed, man, I don't need no corn, Just the finest egg-producer that was ever, ever born! The chickens see the fox and they start to shake with fright, And pop out shiny eggs, y'all, with all of their might! Come on, my little partner, let's scare 'em up some more, We got another basket to fill up on the floor! We got another basket to fill up on the floor! God almighty, these stubborn hens won’t lay no egg, I beg 'em on my knees, man, I beg and I beg! I give 'em premium feed, boy, the best in the land, But they just cluck around and leave me empty-handed, man! God almighty, these stubborn hens won’t lay no egg, I beg 'em on my knees, man, I beg and I beg! I give 'em premium feed, boy, the best in the land, But they just cluck around and leave me empty-handed, man! God almighty, these stubborn hens won’t lay no egg, I beg 'em on my knees, man, I beg and I beg! I give 'em premium feed, boy, the best in the land, But they just cluck around and leave me empty-handed, man! God almighty, these stubborn hens won’t lay no egg, I beg 'em on my knees, man, I beg and I beg! I give 'em premium feed, boy, the best in the land, But they just cluck around and leave me empty-handed, man!
