Song Of The One Legged Chicken — текст песни (Tom T. Hall)

Do you like true stories I do that`s why I`m singing this song
A song about one legged chicken who lives in the straw on the floor in my barn
I remember the day she was hatched out the vet came to see her and said
She has only one leg she`ll never grow up he said that chick would be better off dead
I said no let`s just let her keep growing we`ll just wait and see how she gets
Before very long she was hopping and pecking and chasing the bugs with the rest
And now she is a beautiful chicken though she has only one leg
When I go to see her each morning she hops from the nest and she leaves me an egg
And she cackles
Do you like true stories I do that`s why I`ve sung you this song
The song about the one legged chicken who lives on the floor in my barn
