If You See My Rooster Lyrics


If you see my rooster
Please run him on back home
If you see my rooster
Please run him on back home
I haven't found no eggs in my basket
Since my rooster been goneI heard my rooster crowing
This morning just about the break of day
I heard my rooster crowing
This morning just about the break of dayI guess that was the time he was making his getaway
I just found out how come my hens won't lay
I just found out how come my hens won't lay
Every time I look around my rooster have done gone awayNow play it, Bob
Tell me 'bout my roosterI've got too many hens
For not to have no roosters on my yard
I've got too many hens
For not to have no roosters on my yard
And I don't know what's the matter
Something have done got 'em barredNow, Bob, if you see my rooster

Please run him on back home
Now, Bob, if you see my rooster
Please run him on back home
I haven't found no eggs in my basket
Since my rooster been gone
