Crow Black Chicken

Written By: Danny Barnes

        E              A
Well, I went on the mountain
       E                B7
And gave my horn a blow
      E    A
Thought I heard some pretty gal say
      B7       E
"Yonder come my beau"

E   A           E        A
Crow black chicken and crow for a day
E    A               B7
Crow black chicken and fly away
E   A        E         A
Crow black chicken and crow for a day
          B7  E
Honey I like chicken pie

             E             A
Well, the hardest work that ever I done
    E             B7
Is plowin' a field of rye
       E    A
The easiest work that ever I done
        B7 E
Was eatin' chicken pie

E            A
Chicken crow for midnight
       E                   B7
And chicken crow for a day
E    A
Along come an owl, Lord, have mercy
      B7       E   
And stole my chicken away

E
Me and my baby sugar mama built an a-frame
A
House ten stories high
           E     A
And in every single story and in every single room
B7                 E
We was eating chicken pie

E   A           E        A
Crow black chicken and crow for a day
E    A               B7
Crow black chicken and fly away
E   A        E         A
Crow black chicken and crow for a day
          B7  E
Honey I like chicken pie
