My wife said, "honey, we're losin' money
Because our chickens, no eggs will they lay."

My wife said, "Honey, we're losing money
Because our hounddog, no pups will she give."
One day a rooster (that same old rooster) crept into our yard,
And caught that dog right off her guard.
She's giving birddogs just like she used to
Ever since that rooster crept into our yard.
We had a milkcow, no milk would she give.

Because our milkcow, no milk will she give."

And caught that milkcow right off her guard.
She's giving eggnog, just like she used to,
Ever since that rooster crept into our yard.
