Red Rooster Stampfel & Weber

[Verse 1]
There was an old lady from Houston
She had two old hens and a rooster
Her rooster died, the old lady cried
“My hens don't lay like they used to!”

[Chorus]
Ain't that a shame!
Ain't that a shame!
Ain't that a shame
She lost a helping hand

[Verse 2]
Her next door neighbour, O’Sue
Her ol’ rooster died too
She didn't sigh, she didn't cry
She made her a rooster stew

[Chorus]
Ain't that a shame!
Ain't that a shame!
Ain't that a shame
She lost a helping hand

[Verse 3]
Her next door neighbour, O’Paddy
He seemed to be very happy
He can plan his corns and they will grow long
'Cause the old red rooster’s gone
