Well, old Rooster Jones
got a junkyard just outside of town
We buy and we sell,
says the sign out front
bout a piece about a pound
Big scrap iron piles
and tore up cars
in the front yard by the score
But the way old Rooster
really makes his money
is right out his back door

Rooster Jones
Well, I went out back in a
clump of trees
There's a rundown rickety shack
With a path runnin' to it
where the grass won't grow
Cause people keep walkin' on back
Cause that's where he
keeps his merchandise
Just pull it up and ready to go
Sometimes folks have to wait in line
Just to get an old rooster sold

Well now he don't sell to the rich folks,

The chef, is a righteous fella,

But at the first of the month,
