SIXTEEN CHICKS
(L. Davis - W. Walker)
LINK DAVIS (Starday 235, 1956)

I got sixteen chicks, sittin' in a tree
One turned around and took a look at me
Hey, hey, little chick tell me what's on your mind
You got me walkin' and talkin' and laughin'
just to keep from cryin'
I knew some day that the tide would turn
We all got a lesson that we gotta learn
Hey, hey, little chick tell me what's on your mind
You got me walkin' and talkin' and laughin'
just to keep from cryin'

Come to my house, but you couldn't come in
Me and my baby was making friends
Hey, hey, little chick tell me what's on your mind
You got me walkin' and talkin' and laughin'
just to keep from cryin'
You make my temperature rise, my head going 'round
I need you baby when the sun goes down
Hey, hey, little chick tell me what's on your mind
You got me walkin' and talkin' and laughin'
just to keep from cryin'
