Chick, Chick, Chick, Chick, Chicken (Lay a Little Egg for Me)

From Harry Reser's Six Jumping Jacks, Volume 1, The Old Masters, mb 120.

Good old farmer Haystack is the cleverest of men,
He cuts a rasher off a pig, then shouts out to a hen:

Oh, chick, chick, chick, chick, chicken, lay a little egg for me!
Chick, chick, chick, chick, chicken, I want one for me tea,
I haven't had an egg since Easter,
And now it's half past three,
So, chick, chick, chick, chick, chicken, lay a little egg for me!
