Undead Chicken: Bullets Not Included

STUDIO

[Intro] [Verse 1] Well nobody knows where he came from or why, a feathered little fella with a look in his eye. They shot him seven times down in Rattlesnake Creek next mornin' he walked in and ordered a drink. The barkeep said "you're dead!" he said "mostly." The whole saloon went quiet then got ghostly. He clucked once, tipped his hat, drew faster than the rest turns out death itself couldn't stop the best. (bawk! yee-haw!) [Chorus] They call him the Undead Chicken fastest beak from here to the Rio Picken. Can't kill what's already dead, son he'll be standin' when the last shot's done. Bang! feathers fly but he don't fall, Bang! he just clucks and walks the hall. The Undead Chicken don't die already tried that once didn't take. (bawk bawk! bang! yee-haw!) [Verse 2] Big Jake Dobbins rode in from the south, said "I heard about that chicken I'll shut his beak mouth." He drew first, shot twice both bullets true the Chicken just pecked at 'em like bread crumbs through. Jake ran so fast he left his boots behind, still runnin' last I heard, hadn't looked behind. The sheriff pinned a badge on him what else to do? Can't arrest a dead chicken that ain't in the rules. (ha! bawk!) [Chorus] They call him the Undead Chicken fastest beak from here to the Rio Picken. Can't kill what's already dead, son he'll be standin' when the last shot's done. Bang! feathers fly but he don't fall, Bang! he just clucks and walks the hall. The Undead Chicken don't die already tried that once didn't take. (bawk bawk! yee-haw!) [Bridge] Now some folks say he smells a little funny. Some say his eyes glow red in the dark. Some say he roosted in the graveyard once all I know is: don't mess with that cluck. (heh heh... bawk...) [Final Chorus] They call him the Undead Chicken fastest beak from here to the Rio Picken. Can't kill what's already dead, son he'll be standin' when the last shot's done. Bang! feathers fly but he don't fall, Bang! he just clucks and walks the hall. The Undead Chicken don't die already tried that once didn't take. Undead Chicken. Undead Chicken. Don't be the next Jake, partner. (BAWK! bang! yee-haw! bawk bawk!)
