Black Oak Arkansas - Fightin' Cock lyrics

rate me

Down south there's a gamblin' sport

Where they throw cock-roosters in a pit

This song ain't sayin' what's right or wrong;

It's just sayin' how it is...

One day I came across a small country town

All kinds of excitement was comin' down

The folks spent all their money

Ev'rybody pulls up sharp For a fight to the finish

With a champion fightin' cock Oh Oh Oh

Fightin' cock: your spurs are hot

They came to see the battle from miles around

Ain't no other rooster could ever put him down

They never heard of mercy nor the meaning of fear

The only thing they understood

Was happening right here

Oh Oh Oh Fightin' cock

Won't you show me what you got?

While your spurs are hot

His feathers were ruffled

His tail was upright;

Struttin' real fancy

He always moved just right

Then he screamed out his vict'ry crow

Because,because his enemy,yeah

He stood no mo'

Oh Oh Oh Fightin' cock

Oh Oh Oh won't you show

Me what you've got

Oh Oh Oh fightin' cock

Oh Oh Oh your spurs are hot
