Artist/Band: Fats Domino
Lyrics for Song: The Rooster Song
Lyrics for Album: I Found My Thrill [2011]



There was an old lady from Houston

She had two hens and a rooster

Her rooster died, the old lady cried

"My hens don't lay like they used to"



Ain't that a shame?

Ain't that a shame?

Ain't that a shame

She lost a helping hand?



Her next door neighbor O'Cappy

He seems to be very happy

He can play in his corn, they will grow long

'Cause the old rooster is gone



Ain't that a shame?

Ain't that a shame?

Ain't that a shame

She lost a helping hand?



I know a lady named Sue

Her rooster died too

She didn't sigh, she didn't cry

She made her a pot of stew



Ain't that a shame?

Ain't that a shame?

Ain't that a shame

She lost a helping hand?



There was an old lady from Houston

She had two hens and a rooster

Her rooster died, the old lady cried

"My hens don't lay like they used to"



Ain't that a shame?

Ain't that a shame?

Ain't that a shame

She lost a helping hand?



I know a lady named Sue

Her old rooster died too

She didn't sigh, she didn't cry

She made her a pot of stew



Ain't that a shame?

Ain't that a shame?

Ain't that a shame

She lost a helping hand?


The Rooster Song - Fats Domino

As part of his discography, the song reflects the era's transition from traditional R&B to the more driving sound that would define rock and roll. The recording captures the lively, upbeat atmosphere characteristic of Domino's live performances and studio sessions, cementing his status as a foundational figure in the genre. It remains a testament to his ability to craft catchy, danceable tracks that resonated with audiences across the United States.
