At least as far back as Bob Wills' Ida Red:
Third verse:
"Chicken in the bread pan peckin' out dough,
Granny will-ya dog bite, no chile no,
Hurry up boys and don't fool around,
Grab your partner and truck on down."
Waylon Jennings - Black Rose :
way down in Virginia
amongst the tall grown sugar cane
lived a simple man and a Dominiker hen and a rose of a different name
John Anderson- Chicken Truck :
chicken truck,chicken truck behind it i'm stuck
also,C.W. McCall had a song called Wolf Creek Pass
i dont remember the lyrics but it's about going off a mountain with a truck load of RIR chickens and the brakes going out on the truck
I can plow a field of forty acres
feed the chickens, feed the hogs
fix the drain pipe,pick the guitar
and never loose no time ~West Virginia Man David Allen Coe
I made a youtube video of my baby chickens playing with bread and I found this song online free..I have had so many people ask me about this song..It's pretty funny
