One night Farmer Brown was taking the air, Locked up the barnyard with the greatest of
care, Down in the hen house something [Ab]
stirred,
When he shouted, Who's there?
This is what he [G] heard, [C] There ain't nobody here but [Am] us chickens, _
There ain't nobody here at all, So [F] calm yourself [D] and stop that fuss,
[Am] There ain't nobody here but us, We [D] chickens trying to sleep,
[G] And you butt [E]
in, And hobble, hobble, hobble, [D] hobble,
With [G] your chin, [Am] There ain't nobody here but us chickens, _
[C] There ain't nobody here at all, [F] You're stomping around,
You're [D] shaking the ground, [Am] You're kicking up an awful dust,
We [D] chickens trying to sleep, [G] And you [E] butt in,
And hobble, hobble, hobble, [D] hobble, It's a [G] sin,
[Am] Tomorrow _ is a busy day, We got things to do,
We got eggs to lay, We [D] got ground to dig,
And worms to scratch, _ It takes [Bb] a lot of sitting,
Getting chicks to hatch, [C] Oh, there ain't nobody here [Am] but us chickens,
There ain't nobody here at all, [F] So quiet [A] yourself [Fm] and stop that fuss,
[Am] There ain't nobody here but us, _ [D] Finally point that gun the other [Ab]
way,
[E] And hobble, hobble, [Eb] hobble, off, And hit your [Am] head, _ _ _ _ _ _ _

[Em] And hobble, hobble, hobble, off, And hit your head,
Hey, hey, boss man, [Dm] what do you say?
[A] It's easy pickings,
There [Dm] ain't nobody [G] here but [Em] us chickens, _ _ _ _ _
