AmOne night farmer Brown was takin' the air
EmHe locked up theAm barnyard with the greatest of Dmcare
Down in the Ebhen house, somethin' stirred
When he shouted, "BbWho's there?"
BbThis is what he heard
[Chorus]
"EmThere ain't nobody here but us Amchickens
AmThere ain't nobody here at Emall
CmSo calm yourself and stop that fuss
There ain't nobody here Embut us
EmWe chickens tryin' to sleep and you bust in
And hobble, hobble Cmhobble hobble with your chin"
"AmThere ain't nobody here but us chickens
AmThere ain't nobody here at all
EmYou're stompin' Ebaround and shakin' the ground
You're Amkickin' up an awful dust
We chicken's Dmtryin' to sleep and you bust in
And hobble, hobble Amhobble hobble, it's a sin"
[Pre-Chorus]
"GmTomorrow is a busy day
GmWe got things to do, We got Cmeggs to lay
AmWe got ground to dig and worms to scratch
EbIt takes a lot of settin', gettin' chicks to hatch"
[Chorus]
"AmOh, there ain't nobody here but us chickens
EmNobody here at all
AmSo calm yourself and Ebstop that fuss
