Lyrics:

Stop, I said stop
I said, hold on there, boy

When I walk into the store
They sell the chickens by the score
But eating dead birds just ain't for me
And I don't eat roast beef or fish
And Porky Pig is not my dish
Go ahead and let your chickens free

Chicken circles it's Adolph Perdue
Wants to feed featherless chicken to you
I don't take orders from Colonel Sanders, do you?
And I don't wanna eat no hens
Not even every now or then
I just wanna let all the little chickens be

Bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk
Bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk
Bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk
Well, swing to the east and swing to the west
Swing with the chicken that you love best
Come on down and do the chicken squawk with me

I'm wishing Daffy lots of luck
'Cause Elmer Fudd's a-hunting duck
They're dreaming about a little fricassee
And Bugs Bunny's a friend of mine
Eating him'd feel like Frankenstein
Eating flesh seems pretty foul to me

Cooking chickens don't seem right
Morning, noon, or late at night
Ain't no chicken ever done no harm to me
So on Thanksgiving or Christmas Eve
Give those turkeys a reprieve
Ain't no turkey got to die for me

Bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk
Bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk
Bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk
Well, swing to the east and swing to the west
Swing with the chicken that you love best
Come on down and do the chicken squawk with me

Foghorn Leghorn wrote to me
Says MDC's okay with me
We learned how to let our chickens free
We birds of a feather, we stick together
We set our chickens free forever
So go ahead and let your chickens be!


Lordy Jesus, this must be the end
They got us eating our cartoon friends
Emancipate those little chickadees
Well, swing to the east and swing to the west
Swing with the chicken that you love best
Come on down and do the chicken squawk with me

Bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk
Bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk
Bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk, bawk
Well, swing to the east and swing to the west
Swing with the chicken that you love best
Come on down and do the chicken squawk with me

I say the smart thing to do is to be just plain chicken, yeah
