Well it started with a crack in that little chicken shack
Just like that old barn I'm falling apart
I hold myself together, even in stormy weather
Board upon board upon board
though the wind she flows
from the north i know
that old chicken shack will stand and stand
so it started with a crack in that little chicken shack
just like that old barn i'm falling apart
Coyote out there scratching, sniffing at the door
Coyote out there howling at the door
But the gun's got the bullet and the bullet's got the pain
That coyote don't come around again
So it started with a crack in that little chicken shack
Just like that old barn I'm falling apart
But I hold myself together, even in stormy weather
Board upon board upon board
Fever gets a runnin', runnin' in the wood
Fever gets a runnin' in the wood
But the fire's got the cure and the cure is for sure
Now that fever's gone, gone for good
It started with a crack in that little chicken shack
Just like that old barn I'm falling apart
But I hold myself together, even in stormy weather
Board upon board upon board
