"Petaluma" lyrics - NORMAN GREENBAUM

Got chickens in the houses
We got chickens in the trees
Chicken in the pots of all the
Petalumees

Oh, I'm out in Petaluma
Spending' my days
Oh, I'm out in Petaluma
Spending' my days
Tell me how many eggs will a chicken lay

Oh Marvin got me started
Gave me my first hen
And now I got four and twenty
And twenty four more again

Oh, I'm out in Petaluma
Spending' my days

Oh, I'm out in Petaluma
Spending' my days
Tell me how many eggs will a chicken lay

It's chicken in the morning
It's chicken in the night
If it weren't for chicken Petaluma
Never woulda reached its height

Oh, I'm out in Petaluma
Spending' my days
Oh, I'm out in Petaluma
Spending' my days
Tell me how many eggs will a chicken lay
