COCKS AND HENS.: (To imitate the call of the fowls.)
Hen. Cock, cock, cock, cock,I’ve laid an egg;Am I to gang ba-are-foot?
Cock. Hen, hen, hen, hen,I’ve been up and down,To every shop in town,And cannot find a shoeTo fit your foot,If I’d crow my hea-art out.
[To be said very quickly, except the last two words in each verse, which are to be “screamed” out.]
