Start Jamming...
She is performing Willa Goat's Old Time with her banjo.
So we have to, um
How do you do this?
Give it one second and we'll give you
[Bb] Alright, if ever you are ready.
[G]
[Ebm] Alright, so
This is a song called Who Broke the Lock on the Hen House Door.
I've researched and I can't find who originally wrote the song,
so I'm assuming it's this really old British [Bb] folk song.
Um, the oldest recording I can find is from Unique Quintet in 1895.
[Eb] So this is Who Broke the Lock on the Hen House Door,
and if I can, I'd like to have a bit of audience participation.
Whenever I say, Who Broke the Lock, you'll say, I don't know.
So, without further ado, let's [Bb] go.
Get out now in the courtyard, play tenor clop with the old comp cat in the little yellow box.
Old mother clopper, [Eb] she's a big and out of [Bb] place.
The roosters in the green jar up to a c's.
Who broke the lock?
I don't know.
Who broke the lock on the hen house door?
Before I know, who broke the lock on the hen house door?
In the big red suit, she's a little red head.
Can't wait to play today, since I don't know.
In the big red suit, she's a little red head.
In the big red suit, she's a little red head.
I don't know.
Lock on the hen house door, I'll find out before I go.
Who broke the lock on the hen house door?
Then I'll go up to the farmer's gate.
I'll be good for once again.
Barber dog would bark or bite.
The son of a gun could read and write.
Who broke the lock?
I don't know.
Who broke the lock on the hen house door?
I'm the lock on the hen house door.
Till then, what an outstalk my knees.
I thought I heard old Bruno's feet.
When the rooster's saying his prayers.
And telling his love to the hens upstairs.
Who broke the lock?
I don't know.
Who broke the lock on the hen house door?
I'll find out before I go.
Who broke the lock?
[F] Who broke the lock on the [Bb]
hen house door?
Old farmer, going to the barnyard.
Didn't he tell me a story and I know.
He said that Sally made her cake all go.
Well, never mind the winner of the puzzle,
He didn't blow it.
Who broke the lock?
I don't know.
Who broke the lock on the hen house door?
I'll find out before I burst my arrows.
Though none of you are here.
I know you're not here.
You won't hear an arrow.
Who's there?
Said, well, it may be true.
But I must be the fend of what you know.
Who broke the lock?
I don't know.
[F] [Bb]
Who broke the lock on the hen house door?
