we had a chicken, no eggs would she lay
we had a chicken, no eggs would she lay
and the wife said, "Honey, we're losing money"
because that chicken, no eggs would she lay
Than came that rooster, into our yard,
and caught that chicken, right off of her guard
she's layin' eggs now, like she never used to
ever since that rooster, came into our yard

we had a moo cow, no milk would she give
we had a chicken, no milk would she give
and the wife said, "Honey, we're losing money"
because that moocow, no milk would she give
Than came that rooster, into our yard,
and caught that moo cow, right off of her guard
she's givin' egg nog, like she never used to
ever since that rooster, came into our yard

we had an elephant, no tusks would she grow
we had an elephant, no tusks would she grow
and the wife said, "Honey, we're losing money"
because that elephant, no tusks would she grow
Than came that rooster, into our yard,
and caught that elephant, right off of her guard
she's layin' eggs now, out of solid ivory
ever since that rooster, came into our yard

we had a rooster, he was awfully gay
we had an rooster, he's 'funny that way'
and the wife said, "Honey, we're losing money"
because that rooster, he's funny that way
Than came a chicken, into our yard,
and caught that rooster, right off of his guard
he's layin' hens now, like he never used to
ever since that chicken, came into our yard

My wife asked me when can we get a Rooster? I replied what do we want a Rooster for?
She replied, 'I don't know'. Sometimes I don't understand my wife. Maybe she needs help!!

@Foxglove_fairy

Get her the rooster! No harm in it
