           G         E            A
Well he's not, very handsome, to look at
          D                          G D
Oh he's shaggy, and he eats, like a hog
         G        E            A
And he's always, killin', my chickens
      D                     G
That Dirty Old Egg Sucking Dog.

Chorus:
     E       A
Egg suckin' dog
            D                       G   D
I'm gonna stomp, your head in the ground
        G           E         A
If you don't, stay out of my hen house
     D                     G    D
You Dirty Old Egg Sucking hound.

Now if he don't, stop eatin', my eggs up
Though I'm not a real bad guy
I'm gonna get my rifle and send him
To that great chicken house in the sky.

Chorus:
Egg suckin' dog
Your always hangin' around
But you'd better stay out of my hen house
You Dirty Old Egg Sucking hound.
