Michael Johnson - Chicken Road lyrics
[Michael Johnson - Chicken Road lyrics]
Joint of my little toe
And a garter snake bit my knee by
The bend of the little St joe
Honey that's Missouri
The land of the dust and the toad
It's a wonderful town, Chicken Road
Once I had a scorpion on the
Lobe of my good right ear
And I lived with my great-great grandma
Who could hear what she wanted to hear
Honey that's Missouri
The land where the sky overflows
It's a wonderful town, Chicken Road
Beasts of burden, nip at their hay
And a poolroom banjo playin' to
The close of every day
Night so quiet, you could hear a mouse
Tippin' through the parlor of
A boarding house
Once I got a sunburn on the
Back of my itchin' neck
Went for a ride in a Model T
And I died in a beautiful wreck
Honey that's Missouri
The land that the Lord never knowed
Yes, it's a wonderful town, Chicken Road
