Cocks And Hens

Title:     Cocks And Hens
Author: Eliza Lee Cabot Follen [More Titles by Follen]

(To imitate the call of the fowls.)

Hen. Cock, cock, cock, cock,
I've laid an egg;
Am I to gang ba-are-foot?

Cock. Hen, hen, hen, hen,
I've been up and down,
To every shop in town,
And cannot find a shoe
To fit your foot,
If I'd crow my hea-art out.

[To be said very quickly, except the last two words in each verse,
which are to be "screamed" out.]

[The end]
Eliza Lee Cabot Follen's poem: Cocks And Hens
