Everybody Loves A Chicken 1912

James Pitt-Payne, London UK - 04 Sep 2004

Two college boys from dear old Yale
blew in to New York Town
for they were wise that on Broadway
some chickens could be found.
They strolled around
until they met two girlies just sixteen,
with roguish smile and golden hair
and eyes that were a dream,
they grabbed those maidens quick
and both cried Oh! you chick.

Everybody loves a chicken
everybody wants a girl that's cute and neat.
All the boys they love the small ones,
they don't care for old or tall ones,
they love them thin and sweet.
Everybody loves to love a chicken
and that is why when girls pass by
you'll hear the boys all cry:
Chick! Chick! Chick! Chick!
Chick! Chick! Chick!
Chick! Chick! Chick! Chick!
Chick! Chick! Chick!
Oh! What I'd do for a chicken like you
Everybody loves a chicken.

These college chaps have married
and their lives are long, sweet dreams
because the maidens they have won
are dainty chicken queens.
No more they'll wander 'round the town
and flirt as chicks pass by,
no gay white way,
they've had their day,
but they are bound to cry
when wifey cuddles near
and whispers in his ear.

Everybody loves a chicken
everybody wants a girl that's cute and neat.
All the boys they love the small ones,
they don't care for old or tall ones,
they love them thin and sweet.
Everybody loves to love a chicken
and that is why when girls pass by
you'll hear the boys all cry:
Chick! Chick! Chick! Chick!
Chick! Chick! Chick!
Chick! Chick! Chick! Chick!
Chick! Chick! Chick!
Oh! What I'd do for a chicken like you
Everybody loves a chicken.
