[Intro]
D
[Verse 1]
D G D
It'll take me a minute to tell you this rhyme
E A
Of the duck and the rooster that I knew one time
D G D
A little duck hatched out a day or two late
A D
His mama had already gone to the lake
[Verse 2]
D G D
The little red rooster had broken his foot
E A
So I put him into a little ol' coop
D G D
The little white duck was left out on his own
A D
So I put them together until they were grown
[Verse 3]
D G D
Well, the duck thought the rooster was limping and lame
E A
The rooster believed that the duck was the same
D G D
And so they were pals in the coop in the barn
A D
They huddled together when it came a storm
[Verse 4]
D G D
Well, the weeks they went by and the little guys grew
E A
The little duck quacked and the rooster cocky-dooed
D G D
The duck loved the water and the rooster would scratch
A D
And neither one knew why they acted like that
Eb
[Verse 5]
Eb Ab Eb
Well, one day I turned them both free on the farm
F Bb
The rooster went straight to a roost in the barn
Eb Ab Eb
The little duck went to the lake for a swim
Bb Eb
They liked different things even though they were friends
[Verse 6]
Eb Ab Eb
Well, now you should hear them when they say hello
F Bb
Though it may sound funny, I know that it's so
Eb Ab Eb
I know that it's strange, but I'll tell you it's true
N.C.
When they talk, they go, "quacky-doodle-do"
[Outro]
