Chicken Joe

I got a cat
named Chicken Joe.
He sleeps with the chickens
when the weather
gets cold.

Stays warm in
the hen house all night long,
till the rooster crows at
the break of dawn.

But he’s no chicken,
he’s just a cat,
a cat named
Chicken Joe.

I know a little dog
named Miss Kitty.
She’s a little dog
living in a great big city.

Don’t want a fish,
just want a bone.
Call “Here Kitty, Kitty”
and she’ll come back home.

But she’s no kitty,
she’s just a little dog,
a little dog named
Miss Kitty.

What’s in a name? Call it what
you will but it still won’t change.
Call it anything you want but it’s
still the same. What’s in a name?

I heard about a parakeet
named King Kong,
tweeting and chirping
all day long.

He gets mad enough to
knock down a house in a rage.
It’s a good thing he can’t
get out of that cage.

He’s no gorilla,
he’s just a little bird,
a parakeet named
King Kong.

What’s in a name? Call it what
you will but it still won’t change.
Call it anything you want but it’s
still the same. What’s in a name?

Fred’s got a mule
and he calls him Mister.
I’d rather kiss that mule
than kiss my sister.

Strong and steady
through rock and snow.
He’ll get you where
you want to go.

He’s not a man, he’s just a mule.
She’s no kitty, she’s just a little dog.
He’s no chicken, he’s just a cat,
a cat named Chicken Joe.
