Chicken Song    [Erick Traplin]    Copyright 1993. Traplin Music. All rights reserved.

Well I once met a chicken who didn't know how to lay an egg,
She tried everything she could, even stood on one leg.
(chorus)

She was a game little hen, a plucky little bird,
She never did give up.
From mornin' to night throughout the barnyard
You could hear her cluck.
Cluck.... I'm gonna lay an egg
Cluck.... I'm gonna lay an egg
Cluck... I don't care what it takes
Cluck... I'm gonna lay an egg.

Well she tried it in the nest, she tried her best, even wore her downy vest.
She faced the east, she faced the west, She never took a rest.
She asked a duck, she asked a goose,
She asked her sister hens,
She trusted her luck, she asked a moose,
But he seemed rather dense.

(chorus)

Well she clucked at the moon in the middle of June,
Even ate with a spoon.
She'd suck on a prune just around noon,
Humming a tuneless tune.
She barked like a dog, called her left her right,
Even took to wearin' slippers
She jumped off a log at the stroke of midnight
Counting stars in the Big Dipper.

(chorus)

And then one morning in the middle of the middle of the night
She awoke with a fright,
And gave one big cluck and something came unstuck.
When she opened her eyes to her surprise
And I’m tellin' you no lies.
There in the nest without a jest,
Was an egg in a yellow vest.

(chorus)

Cluck... I did it, I laid an egg.
Cluck... Oh boy, I laid an egg.
Cluck.... Now listen everybody.
Cluck... Hey! I'm a mommy.

Worms In The Can, Wieners On The Bun    [Lawent/Traplin ]
                           Copyright 2009. Traplin Music. All rights reserved.

The rain has stopped and you know what that means
Earthworms  pushed out of all the seams
of the grass, the cracks, the curbs and gutters
wiggling, jiggling, slippery as butter

My allowance ran out so I can't afford
the Superman comic and the wide skateboard
so I put those worms in a coffee can
and start a business with my hot dog stand

(Chorus)

Earthworms, hot dogs get 'em all here
Don't go hungry, bring your fishing gear
A dollar a dog, a dime  a worm
Stand in line and wait your turn
Worms in the can, wieners on the bun
If you don't mix 'em up, it's far out fun
Worms in the can, wieners on the bun
Just make sure you eat the right one

The worms sell out so I gotta shut down
and hunt for more on my uncle's lawn
How do you tell if they're upside down
backwards up or  sideways bound

They squirm away from my thumbs and fingers
and I'm glad they don't have thorns and stingers
I caught a couple kissing each other

I think I’m gonna tell their mothers

(he’s going to tell their mothers)

Chorus

 Wait … …wait a minute mister….r I made a Mistake, that’s the wrong one!!!   Oh! Oh!  too late   Oohhh that has to taste baadd!!

What do you mean??? you liked it??? …. I got more!!!

Earthworms, hot dogs get 'em all here
Don't go hungry, bring your fishing gear
A dollar a dog, a dime  a worm
Stand in line and wait your turn
Worms in the can, wieners on the bun
If you don't mix 'em up, it's far out fun
Worms in the can, wieners on the bun
Just make sure you eat the right one
Worms in the can, wieners on the bun
If you don't mix 'em up, it's far out fun
Worms in the can, wieners on the bun

Worms in the can, wieners on the bun
Worms in the can, wieners on the bun
Just make sure you eat the right one

Good morning         [Erick Traplin]  Copyright 2009. Traplin Music. All rights reserved.

When The Night Is Over And The Day Has Begun
I Awake To The Gentle Voice Of My Mom
As She Softly Whispers Into My Ear
Good Morning, Good Morning, Good Morning My Dear

It’s Time To Get Up And Greet The Day
It’s Time To Chase The Sandman Away
So Rub The Sleep From Your Sleepy Eyes
Good Morning, Good Morning It’s Time To Arise

I Wash My Face, And I Brush My Teeth
I Put My On Clothes And Go Down To Eat
There’s My Brother, My Sister, Mom And Dad Too
They Say Good Morning, Good Morning, Good Morning To You

I Say Hi To My Mom, I Say Hi To My Dad
I Say Hi To My Brother And My Sister Too…
Good Morning, Good Morning, Good Morning To You
I Love You, Good Morning, Good Morning To You
I Love You, Good Morning, Good Morning To You

Be Yourself And No One Else, Don't Let Anyone Lead You Astray
Be True To Yourself And You Feel Good In Every Way.
Don't Let Your Heart Be Torn Apart
By Someone’s Laughter Or Ridicule.
Don't Let Your Mind All Unwind,
Just Be Cool.
If Someone’s Mouth Should Lead You South
Oh, Of Your Borderline.
Remember It's You Who'll Have To Do The Time.

(Chorus)

If You Find You've Been Unkind
To Someone Else. Just To Fit In.
You Know It's Time To Change Your Mind
Begin Again.
For You Know The Winds Gonna Blow
Oh, Back Your Way Some Day,
So Be Smart, Be Yourself,
Walk Your Own Highway.

(Chorus)  2x

Fishin’ Worms      [Erick Traplin]    Copyright 1993. Traplin Music. All rights reserved.

                                                                                                                                              (Chorus)

Fishin' Worms, Fishin' Worms, Fishin' Worms Make My Stomach Turn.
Long Skinny Fishin' Worms, Short Fat Fishin' Worms,
Slimy Gooey Fishin' Worms, Creepy Crawly Fishin' Worms
Fishin' Worms, Fishin' Worms, Fishin' Worms Make My Stomach Turn.

Those Fishin' Worms Don't Know A Thing.
I Don't Think They Even Have A Brain.
Crawlin' On The Roads And Sidewalks After A Rain
Gettin' Squished By Cars And Trucks And Passin' Vans.
I Don't Like 'Em, You Can Have 'Em,
Fishin' Worms Do Strange Things To Me Man.

My Brother Keeps Stickin' Them In My Face.
I Don't Know What To Do Or To Say.
Run Away, Hide Away, What Am I To Do Today
Keep Those Creepy Crawly Things Away From Me.
I Don't Want To Play Your Game,
Those Fishin' Worms Drive Me Insane.

(Chorus)

They Don't Seem To Care Where They Go,
As Long As It's Across The Sidewalk Or Road.
Half Squished, Half Dead, They Keep Going Straight Ahead.
Where They're Going They Don't Know, Neither Do I.
I Just Wish My Brother Would Stop Shaking Them In Front Of My Eyes.

(Chorus)
