ZOMBIE ROOSTER

 Way back on the farm about the same time
That we gave that poor sow all that wine
Momma said we need chicken in the freezer
I drew water from the well to fill the pot
On the fire sat the pot to get the water hot
To dip the chickens, the water has to boil
So you can pluck them without so much toil
Dad and Charlie wrung the chickens necks
Mom and us kids would pick the feathers
My little sister played and tried to help
Because at that time she was only three
You kill chickens they jump all around
We killed a rooster,it flopped up and down
As my sis ran, trying to get away that day
The rooster flopped and went that way
Then we told her it couldn't see her
Scared,she screamed and jumped and ran
She yelled "But it's after me like it can"
Now over the years we had many a laugh
And she still says,even as a grownup now
That Zombie Rooster was after her that day
She won't believe that it was any other way
