The Turkey In The Straw

LETRA

The Turkey In The Straw

Well, i had an old hen and she had a wooden leg
just the best old hen that ever laid an egg
well, she laid more eggs than any hen on the farm
but another little drink wouldn't do her any harm
Turkey in the hay, in the hay, hay, hay
turkey in the straw, in the straw, straw, straw
pick 'em up, shake 'em up, any way at all
and hit up a tune called turkey in the straw
Well, i hitched up the wagon and i drove down the road
with a two horse wagon and a four horse load
well cracked my whip and the lead horse sprung
and i said goodbye to the wagon tongue
* refrain
well, if frogs had wings and snakes had hair
and automobiles went a flying thro' the air
well if watermelons grew on a huckleberry vine
we'd have winter in the summer time
* refrain
oh, i went out to milk and i didn't know how
i milked a goat instead of a cow
a monkey sitting on a pile of straw
a winkin' his eyes at his mother in law
* refrain
well, i come to the river and i couldn't get across
so i paid five dollars for an old blind horse
well, he wouldn't go ahead and he wouldn't stand still
so he went up and down like an old saw mill
* refrain
Well, i raised some chickens that had three legs
plump and juicy, the size of whiskey kegs
one drumstick for ma and one for pa
and the third was for my mother in law
* refrain
My three legged chickens were quite a sight
i was asked how they taste most every night
but the truth is i really didn?t know
for they ran much faster than i could go
* refrain
