Lyrics
"Tim Moore's Big Red Rooster"
I'm Tim Moore's Big Red Rooster
I lay the hens in his pen
I'm Tim Moore's Big Red Rooster
I lay his hens now and then
Mr. Moore tells his friends
I'm the best hen layer ever been
(Gary Ward Lead)
All the other roosters
They done up and flew the coop
I say now, all the other roosters
They done flew the farmers coop
So line up lil' chickies
Big Red Rooster got somethin' just for you
Hey there lil' chickadee
You say you want this big cock
Hey there lil' chickadee
Tell Big Red Rooster what you want
You say the word lil' lady
Big Red Rooster give you all what I got
(Gary Ward Lead)
I'm Tim Moore's Big Red Rooster
I lay the hens in his pen
Aw now, I'm Tim Moore's Big Red Rooster
I lay the hens now and then
Mr. Moore tells his friends
I'm the best dang rooster ever been
Now all the other roosters
They done up and flew the coop
(that's what I'm sayin')
Hey all the other roosters
They done flew the farmers coop
So line up lil' chickies
Big Red Rooster got somethin' just for you
(Cliff Houck Lead)
I'm Tim Moore's Big Red Rooster
I lay the hens in his pen
Aw now, I'm Tim Moore's Big Red Rooster
I lay this hens now and then
Mr. Moore tells his friends
I'm the best hen layer ever been
Hey there lil' chickadee
You say you want this big cock
Hey there lil' chickadee
Tell Big Red Rooster what you want
You say the word lil' lady
Big Red Rooster give you all what I got
(Cliff Houck Lead)
I'm Tim Moore's Big Red Rooster
I lay the hens in his pen
Aw now, I'm Tim Moore's Big Red Rooster
I lay this hens now and then
Mr. Moore tells his friends
I'm the best hen layer ever been
Hey there lil' chickadee
You say you want this big cock
Aw now, Hey there lil' chickadee
Tell Big Red Rooster what you want
You say the word lil' lady
Big Red Rooster give you all what I got
You say the word lil' lady
Big Red Rooster give you all what I got
Cause I'm The Cock Of The Walk Baby!
