And you can follow it up with "Down on the Farm".  <Down on the farm, they
all ask for you, the chickens ask, the horses ask (etc), they all ask for
you>   Of course, "ask" sounds more like ass when you sing it.  8-)

A suggestion for those who think that it is unbecoming to play "The Chicken
Dance" The next time this fowl request surfaces wow the audience with
"Chicken" and the words that "Chicken ain't nothin' but a bird".

For those not familiar with the tune it was recorded by George Lewis  in May
1950 . Possibly one of your fellow musicians can help you out and at the
same time you may be able to get a few converts to the cause of OKOM.
