The (D) gosh darn chicken laid a (A) hard boiled (D) egg!

(D) Turkey in the straw - haw, haw, haw (G) Turkey in the hay - what’d you say?
The (D) old folks dance with their Mother-in-(A) law
When you (D) hit em with a tune called (A) Turkey in the (D) Straw
Well I (D) went out to milk But I (G) didn't know how
I (D) milked the pig (A) instead of the cow a (D) monkey was sittin' on a (G) pile of straw
(D) Pickin’ the bugs off his (A) brother-in-(D) law
