Rooster

(album: Growl - 2003)

My rooster crows at dawn
My rooster crows at dawn
Don't do nothing when the dark come on

You know it don't seem right
Ah, it don't seem right
Bird oughta do something about it getting night

I ain't the criminal kind
I was never the criminal kind
I just do a little pilfering from time to time

It was around Muscle Shoals
It was around Muscle Shoals
I was crawling in a window, got shot full of holes

So it was at that time
It was at that time
I decided to forgo my life of crime

So I got me got me a guitar
Oh, I got me a guitar
I play all night for some money in a jar

I got me a suit of clothes
I got a suit of clothes
I rarely get home before my rooster crows

My rooster crows at dawn
My rooster crows at dawn
Don't do nothing when the dark come on
