Roddy's Rooster, man! you couldn't oust her Standing up there on his dunghill fair Announcing to the whole world, to All everywhere My ****! He's the greatest doodle doer O! that Roddy's Rooster.
He don't need no booster, does Roddy's Rooster He'd even go after the goose sir Don't you fouster with this Rooster You'd only lose sir Now vamoose sir.
Very dapper and quite the scrapper Patrolling his perimeter Strutting around the farmyard pound Invariably, henhouse bound If you were to meet him It'd be "Put up your dukes sir Me! I'm Roddy's Rooster".
With his tail feathers all fluffed up Like a feather duster And his chest all puffed out Quite the Dandy and always randy What a Suitor that Roddy's Rooster And O! what a Wooer, that wooey doodler.
I I
He came a cropper though one day When he fell in the Hopper Now he's a good deal shorter And not half as cocky as before, Now he sits on his wall lamenting his fall Thinking of the days when he used to have a ball Has Lady Luck that Grand Old Duck deserted him I wonder.
Sad to see, now he's a bit gammy More Bandy than Dandy He still South's in the Summer But has doubts in the Winter, Now he likes to crow his woes and lows away Climbing up onto his dunghill, he greets the day But now in a high shrill falsetto voice He sings in a whole different way " I've been round the Ringer but I'm still quite a Dinger **** a Doodley Doo" Now... now he's a ****** Blues singer!
O! that Roddy's Rooster. Roddy's Rooster Yeeaahh!
A bit of fun. An inspirational tale during these dark uncertain days. And a Very Happy St Paddy's day to All.
