Chicken Wing on a String Lyrics

My boss said I got something, something good for you to do

You sure ain't gonna like it, but you're the low man on the crew

My stomach started turning, my palms started to sweat

But I can't find a job elsewhere, and I sure as heck can't quit

I put on my best gloves and showed him a sly grin

Said, hey, Mr. Bossman, where do I begin

It ain't nothin' but a thang-thang

Chicken wing,

Chicken wing, chicken wing on a string

Just a dang thing

It's a ch-ch-ch-chicken wing, chicken wing, chicken wing on a string

I gotta tell you, ain't nothin' but a thing

A chicken wing, chicken wing on a string thing

My oldest daughter called me, she called me on the phone

I said, hun, I'm still workin', she said, you best get home

Cause mama's just a cussin', the house is just a wreck

The water heater's busted and the floor is soakin' wet

I sped on to the house and did what I could do

It's just about the right attitude

It ain't nothin' but a thang-thang

A chi-chi-chicken wing, A chicken wing,

Chicken wing on a string

Just a dang thing

Ch-ch-ch-chicken wing, chicken wing,

Chicken wing on a string

I gotta tell you, ain't nothin' but a thing

A chicken wing, chicken wing on a string thing

I calmed down my old lady and jump back in the truck

I tried to get back quickly, but that just ain't my luck

I fired up the engine, but then the motor blew

I spilled my cup of coffee down my jeans into my boots

They say if it ain't one thing, it's another, well that's true

It's just a thang, hey, what can you do

It ain't nothin' but a thang-thang

Chi-chi-chicken wing, chicken wing,

Chicken wing on a string thing

Just a dang thing

Chi chi-chi-chicken wing, chicken wing,

Chicken wing on a string

I gotta tell you, ain't nothin' but a no thing

A chicken wing, chicken wing on a string thing

Chicken wing, chicken wing on a string
