Downhome Chicken Lyrics

We used to raise chicken that is momma and me

Kept 'em in the backyard, let 'em run free

Some we kept for laying and the rest we'd eat

We'd clean 'em every night and we'd grease their little feet

Free-range corn-fed certified organic

Germ free sterilized hypo-allergenic

The cleanest little chickens that you ever did see

Them down home chickens just can't be beat

I had it everyday it was all that I'd eat

So it never really seemed so special to me

But I couldn't bring myself to waste a single piece

That down home chicken just can't be beat

Dry rubbed crumb coated overnight marinated

Dressed up overstuffed deep fried double basted

Best tasting chicken that you're ever gonna eat

That down home chicken just can't be beat

We had so many chicken they were under our feet

Much more that me and momma could ever try to eat

So we sold 'em to the process plant up the street

They mangled 'em up and made 'em into the tastiest little treat

Boneless skinless partially hydrogenated

Beakless feetless mechanically separated

Don't taste like chicken but it's something to eat

Because you can't go wrong with unrefrigerated meat
