A Chicken Ain't Nothin' But A Bird - Original Mono

Everybody’s talkin' 'bout chicken
Chicken’s a popular word
But anywhere you go, you’re bound to find
A chicken ain’t nothin' but a bird
Some people call it a fowl
That’s the story I’ve heard
But let 'em call it this and let 'em call it that
A chicken ain’t nothin' but a bird
You can boil it, roast it, broil it
Put it in a pan or pot
Brown it
Eat it with potatoes, rice or tomatoes
Chicken is still what you’ve got
Boy
It was a dish for old Caesar
Also King Henry the Third
But Columbus was hip
He said, «Take this tip
A chicken ain’t nothin' but a bird»
You can boil it, roast it, broil it
Put it in a pan or pot
Brown it
Eat it with potatoes, rice or tomatoes
Chicken is still what you’ve got
Boy
It was a dish for old Caesar
Also King Henry the Third
But Columbus was hip
He said, «Take this tip
A chicken ain’t nothin' but a bird»
A chicken ain’t nothin' but a bird
