Chicken Heads Lyrics by Bobby Rush

daddy told me on his dying bed
give up your heart or don’t you lose your head
you come along girl, what did i do?
i lost my heart and my head went too

little girl little girl you sure can cook
little girl little girl you you’ve got me hooked
when you cook that chicken save me the head
i should be working but i’m home in bed

i’m thinking about you
i’m dreaming about you
love that gal
love them chicken heads you

without your love i just cant go on
the feelings i have for you is much too strong

let me in
let me in
let me in

my love for you so doggone strong
like the mississippi river rolls on and on
if loving you was doggone crime
id be sitting in jail done flat nine-nine

i’m thinking about you
i’m dreaming about you
i love that gal
i love them chicken heads too

without your love i just cant go on
all the feelings i have for you are too doggone strong
let me in
let me in
let me in

love that gal
love them chicken heads too
