Little Red Rooster Lyrics by Lucinda Williams

Have Yourself a Rockin’ Little Christmas

2021

[Verse 1]
Well, I have a little red rooster
Wakes me up on Christmas day
Yeah, I have a little red rooster
Wakes me up on Christmas day
Keep everything in the barnyard
Upset in every way

[Verse 2]
Now the snow begins to fall
And the hounds begin to howl
The snow begins to fall
And the hounds begin to howl
Better watch your Christmas dinner
My little rooster is on the prowl

[Verse 3]
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
'Cause it ain’t never gonna feel like Christmas
If that rooster's still gone

[Verse 3]
Well, if you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
If you see my little red rooster
Please drive him home
'Cause it ain’t never gonna feel like Christmas
If my rooster's still gone
