The Rooster Song Lyrics - Fats Domino

There was an old lady from Houston 

She had two hens and a rooster 

Her rooster died, the old lady cried 

"My hens don't lay like they used to" 

Ain't that a shame? 

Ain't that a shame? 

Ain't that a shame 

She lost a helping hand? 

Her next door neighbor O'Cappy 

He seems to be very happy 

He can play in his corn, they will grow long 

'Cause the old rooster is gone 

Ain't that a shame? 

Ain't that a shame? 

Ain't that a shame 

She lost a helping hand?

I know a lady named Sue 

Her rooster died too 

She didn't sigh, she didn't cry 

She made her a pot of stew 

Ain't that a shame? 

Ain't that a shame? 

Ain't that a shame 

She lost a helping hand? 

There was an old lady from Houston 

She had two hens and a rooster 

Her rooster died, the old lady cried 

"My hens don't lay like they used to" 

Ain't that a shame? 

Ain't that a shame? 

Ain't that a shame 

She lost a helping hand?
