If You See My Rooster by Memphis Minnie Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If you see my rooster, please run him on back home
If you see my rooster, please run him on back home
I haven't found no eggs in my basket since my rooster been gone

[Verse 2]
I heard my rooster crowing this morning just about the break of day
I heard my rooster crowing this morning just about the break of day
I guess that was the time he was making his getaway

[Verse 3]
I just found out how come my hens won't lay
I just found out how come my hens won't lay
Every time I look around my rooster have done gone away
Now play it, Bob
Tell me 'bout my rooster

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
I've got too many hens for not to have no roosters on my yard
I've got too many hens for not to have no roosters on my yard
And I don't know what's the matter, something have done got 'em barred
[Verse 1]
Now, Bob, if you see my rooster, please run him on back home
Now, Bob, if you see my rooster, please run him on back home
I haven't found no eggs in my basket since my rooster been gone
