Rhode Island Red

[Verse 1]
Rhode Island Red
Couldn't get up this mornin’
He had a great big head
And he couldn't stop yawnin'

[Verse 2]
Been out hoopin’ with the boys
Drinkin' river whiskey
He couldn't make a joyful noise
This morning

[Chorus]
You better rest up, Red
You better stay in bed
You better rest your head
Rest up, Red, or you'll be dead, oh yeah
You'll be dead, and I said, I said
Rhode Island Red

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
You better rest up, Red
You better stay in bed
You better rest your head
Rest up, Red, or you'll be dead, oh yeah
You'll be dead, I said, I said

[Verse 3]
Rhode Island Red
I couldn't get up this mornin’
He had a great big head
And he couldn’t stop yawnin'
