Willie Dixon The Little Red Rooster

I had a little red rooster, too lazy to crow for day
I had a little red rooster, too lazy to crow for day
He kept ev'rything in the barnyard
Eager settin' a-ready to lay

You know, the dogs they begin to bark,
the hounds they begin to howl
You know, the dogs they begin to bark,
the hounds they begin to howl
You know my little red rooster's gone,
the little red rooster's on the prowl

If you see my little red rooster,
please drag him on home
If you see my little red rooster,
somebody please run him home
There's been no peace in the barnyard
since my little red rooster's been gone
