Can you hear him, that long legged rooster
He’s peckin’ around my door
He’s just looking for some weak willed woman who will
Let him in once more
Sister, don’t let him in
I’m running out of willpower and wherewithal
Can’t give a little bit without giving it all
Get behind me rooster
Get behind me and be gone
Window closed tightly but
God almighty he is
Making such a fuss
Hoping and praying I can stay out of temptation but he’s
Sounding kinda trustworthy again
I’m running out of willpower and wherewithal
Can’t give a little bit without giving it all
Get behind me rooster
Get behind me and be gone
Some say it’s nothing a little coffee and grease won’t cure
Some say what’s wrong with just opening the door
But that rooster’s not welcome no more
He’s doing a bang up job burning holes in my resolve
Oh he’s good, but he’s not that good
When I finally clear him
He’s gonna scream and shout he’ll be mad
So damn mad
I’m running out of willpower and wherewithal
Can’t give a little bit without giving it all
Get behind me rooster
Get behind me rooster
