Intro: #1. Muskrat, muskrat, what makes your back so slick? I've been livin' in the water all of my life, it's a wonder I ain't sick, I ain't sick, I ain't sick, I ain't sick. #2. Ground-hog, ground-hog, what makes your back so brown? I've been livin' in the ground all of my life, it's a wonder I'm around, I'm around, I'm around, I'm around. #3. Jaybird, Jaybird, what makes you fly so high? I've been eatin' these acorns all of my life, it's a wonder I don't die, I don't die, I don't die, I don't die. INTERLUDE: #4. Rooster, rooster, what makes your claws so hard? I've been scratchin' in the barnyard all of my life, it's a wonder I ain't tired, I ain't tired, I ain't tired, I ain't tired. #5. Tomcat, tomcat, what makes your tail so long? I've been prowling around all of my life, it's a wonder I ain't gone, I ain't gone, I ain't gone, I ain't gone. OUTRO: A..(Fade.)
