 |   |  | Chicken, chicken, why aren't you With your mother hen so true?
 Pecking, playing, running around
 Taking sunbaths on the ground.
 Chicken, chicken, why aren't you
 With your mother hen so true?
 
 |  | |  | Chicken, chicken, why aren't you With your sisters and brothers, too?
 Scratching, running, having fun,
 Taking dustbaths in the sun.
 Chicken, chicken, why aren't you
 With your sisters and brothers, too?
 
 | 
 |  | |  | Chicken, chicken, baby bird May your cheeping cries be heard,
 Hushed and soothed by those who see
 We are all one family.
 Chicken, chicken, why aren't you
 With your mother hen so true?
