chicken every sunday

chicken every sunday mama

everything's all right. johnny was just a little boy the day his daddy died

and his mama had a hard time keepin' them both

but the lord knows how she tried

and sometimes she'd tell him son we got heaven on our side. there's chicken every sunday johnny everything's all right

although he was just a little lad he never did forget

his mama special way of sayin' how their little home was blessed

and sometimes she would say when she said her prayers at night. she'd bowed her head and said

chicken every sunday lord

and everything's all right. well

johnny grew to be a man and his mama passed away

and this fate would have happened

johnny's the rich man today

in fact they held the dinner to honor johnny's name

and with his fame and his riches you might think that johnny had changed. but thirty rich men sat around and passed the golden cup

and johnny

god bless his honor

looked around and then stood up

thirty rich men bowed their heads and everything grew quiet

and johnny said chicken every sunday mama

everything's all right. chicken every sunday mama

everything's all right.
