| Say boy, don’t you harm that bird
|
| Don’t you dare to try
|
| Start releasin' the chicken or you’ll get a lickin'
|
| That chick’s too young to fry
|
| Hey boy, better take my word
|
| Here’s the reason why
|
| Gotta feed her steady 'til she gets ready
|
| That chick’s too young to fry
|
| Take her back in the barnyard
|
| Then let her go, just turn her loose
|
| Way out ther in the barnyard
|
| Where she’ll grow up for better use
|
| Hey boy, there will come a time
|
| Someday by and by
|
| She’ll be ready for fryin', so stop your cryin'
|
| That chick’s too young to fry

|
| Someday by and by

| She’ll be ready for fryin', so stop your cryin'
|
| That chick’s too young to fry
|
| Get away, stay away, come back another day
|
