Rooster In The Garden Lyrics

Woke up this mornin' sun barely peepin' through

The roosters crowin' loud like they always do

Brewed a pot of coffee put my boots on for the day

But there's somethin' different somethin' I gotta say

Headed on outside to tend to my chores

Caught a sight so strange I had to pause and explore

Old Red the rooster struttin' like a king

Not in the barnyard but where I grow my beans

Rooster in the garden scratchin' at the dirt

Feathers flyin' wild doesn't seem to be hurt

He's outta place but makin' it his own

Rooster in the garden far from his home

Tried to shoo him back but he's feelin' bold

Chasin' butterflies like he's ten years old

Neighbors passin' by laughin' at the sight

That rooster's found his freedom under the sky so bright

Rooster in the garden scratchin' at the dirt

Feathers flyin' wild doesn't seem to be hurt

He's outta place but makin' it his own

Rooster in the garden far from his home

Maybe we all need a change of scene sometimes

Leave the familiar chase new dreams n' find

A little joy in the unexpected a twisty path to roam

Just like that rooster far away from home
