One night farmer Brown
Was taking the air
Locked up the barnyard
With the greatest of care
And to the hen house something stirred
When he hollered, "Who's there?"
This is what he heard
"There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't nobody here at all
So calm yourself
Stop that fuss
There ain't nobody here but us
We chickens trying to sleep
And you butt in
And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble
Whiggle chin
There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't nobody here at all
You're stomping around
And causing the fuss
And kicking up an awful dust
We chickens trying to sleep
And you butt in
And hobble, hobble, hobble, hobble
It's a sin
Tomorrow is a busy day
We got things to do
We got eggs to lay
We got ground to dig
And worms to scratch
It takes a lot of setting
Getting chicks to hatch
There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't nobody here at all
So quiet yourself
And stop that fuss
There ain't nobody here but us
Hey, kindly point that gun
The other way
And hobble, hobble, hobble off
And hit the hay
Tomorrow is a busy day
We got things to do
We got eggs to lay
We got ground to dig
And worms to scratch
It takes a lot of settting
Getting chicks to hatch
There ain't nobody here but us chickens
There ain't nobody here at all
So quiet yourself
And stop that fuss
There ain't nobody here but us
And kindly point that gun
The other way
And hobble, hobble, hobble off
And hit the hay
Hey, boss man
What you say
It's easy picking
Ain't nobody here but us chickens"
