_ [Bbm] _ _ _ _ One night Farmer Brown was taking the air, _ locked up the barnyard with the greatest of care.
[Bb] Down in the hen house [A] something stirred, [Db] when he shouted, who's there?
This is [Abm] what he heard.
[Bbm] There ain't nobody here but us chickens, _ [Db] there ain't nobody here at all.
So [Bb] calm yourself [Gbm] and stop that fuss, there [Db] ain't nobody here but us.
[Bbm] We chickens trying [Ebm] to sleep and [F] you butt in, and hobble, hobble, hobble, [Eb] hobble [Fm] with your chin.
[Db] There ain't nobody [Bbm] here but us chickens, _ [Db] there ain't nobody here at all.
_ [Gb] You're stomping around, shaking the ground, [Bbm] you're kicking up an awful dust.
We chickens [Ebm]
trying to sleep [Db] and you butt in, [Bbm] and hobble, [E] hobble, hobble, hobble, [Db] it's a sin. _ _
[Eb] Tomorrow is [Db] a busy day, we got things to do, we got eggs to lay, [Eb] we got ground to dig and worms to scratch.
It takes [N] a lot of sitting getting chicks to hatch, [Bbm] oh there ain't nobody here but us chickens, _ [Db] there ain't nobody here at all.
[Ebm] So [Dbm] quiet yourself and [Gbm] stop that fuss, [Bbm] there ain't nobody here but us.
_ Kindly point [Ebm] that gun the other [F] way, and [Bb] hobble, hobble, [Eb] hobble off [Db] and hit your head. _ _
