[Verse]
Am
One night farmer Brown was takin' the air
Em              Am                             Dm
He locked up the barnyard with the greatest of care
            Eb
Down in the hen house, somethin' stirred
                  Bb
When he shouted, "Who's there?"
Bb
This is what he heard

[Chorus]
 Em                             Am
"There ain't nobody here but us chickens
Am                         Em
There ain't nobody here at all
Cm
So calm yourself and stop that fuss
                        Em
There ain't nobody here but us
Em
We chickens tryin' to sleep and you bust in
                   Cm
And hobble, hobble hobble hobble with your chin"
 Am
"There ain't nobody here but us chickens
Am
There ain't nobody here at all
Em              Eb
You're stompin' around and shakin' the ground
       Am
You're kickin' up an awful dust
             Dm
We chicken's tryin' to sleep and you bust in
                   Am
And hobble, hobble hobble hobble, it's a sin"

[Pre-Chorus]
 Gm
"Tomorrow is a busy day
Gm                          Cm
We got things to do, We got eggs to lay
Am
We got ground to dig and worms to scratch
Eb
It takes a lot of settin', gettin' chicks to hatch"

[Chorus]
 Am
"Oh, there ain't nobody here but us chickens
Em
Nobody here at all
Am                   Eb
So calm yourself and stop that fuss
Em
There ain't nobody here but us
Gm
Kindly point that gun the other way
Em                                       Dm
And hobble, hobble hobble of and hit the hay"
