Lyrics for Cock O' the Walk

Come on, babe, move over I'm sittin' here tonight Come on, babe, move over Do you think it's right? I can puff up my feathers, look real mean Be the old man of this here scene I'm a struttin' freedom phantom rooster Lookin' for a fight I'm mean, lookin' for a fight Hold on there, partner My hat just ain't on right Just a minute there, gov'nor While I set it right It's a half turn left, a half turn right This old thing used to be bright white I'm a struttin' freedom phantom rooster Lookin' for a fight I'm mean, lookin' for a fight I went on down to sports bar town Put my other hand in the fryer Took the four fifty Addison To see Pulaski at night And it's one for the money, two for the Jack Three for the Joe you got to pay back I'm a struttin' freedom phantom rooster Lookin' for a fight I'm mean, I'm lookin' for a fight I'm a struttin' freedom phantom rooster Just lookin' for a fight I'm a struttin' freedom phantom rooster I think that might make it right I can puff up my feathers, look real mean Be the old man of this here scene, yeah I'm a struttin' freedom phantom rooster Just lookin' for a fight Yes, I'm lookin' for a fight
