Banty Rooster Blues
 

I'm going to buy me a banty : put him in my back door
So when he sees a stranger coming : he'll flap his wings and crow

What you want with a rooster : he won't crow 'fore day
What you want with a man : when he won't do nothing he say

What you want with a hen : won't cackle when she lay
What you want with a woman : when she won't do nothing I say

Oh take my picture : hang it up in Jackson's wall
Anybody ask you what about it : tell them that's all I saw

My hook's in the water : and my cork's on top
How can I lose Lord : with the help I got

I know my dog : anywhere I hear him bark
I can tell my rider : if I feel her in the dark
