00:00Well, I'm sitting on my porch, sunny, shining bright
00:22Got my old guitar with fingers working right
00:26Watching in the garden where the veggies stand tall
00:29Cluckin' little chickens, oh, they're havin' a ball
00:32Hoppin' round the cabbage and peckin' at the ground
00:36Little feeder dance and makin' that sweet sound
00:40With a rooster crowin', he's the king of the lot
00:43Yellin' rise and shine like he's givin' a shot
00:46Oh, watchin' the chickens in the garden all day
00:50Scratchin' at the dirt in their own special way
00:53Cluckin' and a-cacklin', life's a joyous tune
00:57Underneath the sun we'll be dancin' till noon
01:04Now there's Sally the hen, she's the queen of the crowd
01:24Struttin' round the flower, bet she's singin' out loud
01:27Then there's old Benny with his feathers of gold
01:31He struts with the best, oh, he's mighty bold
01:34In a world of worries, they don't have a care
01:38Just a peck at some grains and a sun-soaked fair
01:41So I grab my banjo, let the music take flight
01:44To the rhythm of the cluckin', it feels so right
01:48Oh, watchin' the chickens in the garden all day
01:51Scratchin' at the dirt in their own special way
01:55Cluckin' and a-cacklin', life's a joyous tune
01:59Underneath the sun we'll be dancin' till noon
02:04Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
02:09Evening creeps up
02:38But the joy don't subside
02:39With my trusty old friends
02:41I got nothing to hide
02:43Moonlights glowing softly
02:45On the leaves and the grass
02:47While the chickens snuggle close
02:48Happy as they bask
02:50With every little cluck
02:51They're singing me a song
02:53In this garden of dreams
02:55Where I know I belong
02:57So let the world keep turning
02:58And let the troubles fly
03:00I'll be watching my chickens
03:02Neat that blue sky
03:03Oh, watching the chickens
03:05In the garden all day
03:07Scratching at the dirt
03:09In their own special way
03:10Clucking and a cackling
03:12Life's a joyous tune
03:14Underneath the sun
03:17We'll be dancing till noon
03:20So here's to the garden
03:23And the friends that I keep
03:25The sound of the clucking
03:27Lulls me to sleep
03:28With a smile on my face
03:30I'll forever be found
03:33Watching the chickens
03:36In this paradise ground
03:38And the wind
03:56And the wind
