Lyrics:
There was an old lady from HoustonShe had two hens and a roosterHer rooster died, the old lady criedMy hens don't lay like they used to!Ain't that a shame!Ain't that a shame!Ain't that a shameShe lost a helping handHer next door neighbor O'CappyHe seems to be very happyHe can play in his corn, they will grow long'Cause the old rooster is goneAin't that a shameAin't that a shameAin't that a shameShe lost a helping handI know a lady named SueHer rooster died tooShe didn't sigh, she didn't cryShe made her a pot of stewAin't that a shameAin't that a shameAin't that a shameShe lost a helping hand
