A Chicken Ain't Nothing But A Bird

Chicken, nice fried chicken
 Barbecued chicken, won't you send it down the line?
 Say everyone's talking 'bout chicken
 Chicken's a popular word
 But anywhere you go, you're bound to find
 A chicken ain't nothin' but a bird
 Some folks call it a fowl
 That's the story I heard
 But let 'em call it this and let 'em call it that
 A chicken ain't nothin' but a bird
 You can boil it, roast it, broil it
 Cook it in a pan or a pot
 Eat it with potatoes, rice or tomatoes
 But chicken's still what you got, boy
 It was a dish for old Caesar
 Also, King Henry III
 But Columbus was smart, said, "You can't fool me
 A chicken ain't nothin' but a bird"
