Chicken Joe Lyrics

Trout Fishing In America Chicken Joe

I got a cat named Chicken Joe,
Sleeps with the chickens when the weather gets cold.
Stays warm in the hen house all night long
'till the rooster crows at the break of dawn.
But he's no chicken, he's just a cat,
A cat named Chicken Joe.

I know a little dog named Miss Kitty,
She's a little dog livin' in a great big city.
Don't want a fish, just want a bone,
Call "Here Kitty, Kitty" and she'll come back home.
But she's no kitty, she's just a little dog.
A little dog named Miss Kitty.
What's in a name? Call it what you will
but it still won't change.
Call it anything you want but it's still
the same. What's in a name?

I heard about a parakeet named King Kong,
Tweeting and chirping all day long.
Gets mad enough to knock down a house in a rage,
It's a good thing he can't get out of that cage.
He's no gorilla, he's just a little bird.
A parakeet named King Kong.

Fred's got a mule and he calls him Mister,
I'd rather kiss that mule than kiss my sister.
Strong and steady through rock and snow.
He'll get you where you want to go.
He's not a man, he's just a mile,
She's no kitty, she's just a little dog.
He's no chicken, he's just a cat.
A cat named Chicken Joe.
