Red Rooster

When the black rooster crows
It's because the day's done
When the black rooster crows
It's because the day's done
If the red rooster sang
Things would be different

Oh, if I'm lying
Then let the wind erase the song I sing
Oh, what a disappointment
If the wind erased what I sing

They faced off in the sand
The two roosters, eye to eye
They faced off in the sand
The two roosters, eye to eye
The black rooster was big
But the red one was brave

Oh, if I'm lying
Then let the wind erase the song I sing
Oh, what a disappointment
If the wind erased what I sing

They stared each other down
And the black one struck first
They stared each other down
And the black one struck first
The red rooster is brave
But the black one is treacherous

Oh, if I'm lying
Then let the wind erase the song I sing
Oh, what a disappointment
If the wind erased what I sing

Black rooster, black rooster
Black rooster, I'm warning you
Black rooster, black rooster
Black rooster, I'm warning you
A red rooster never backs down
Only when it's dead
A red rooster never backs down
Only when it's dead

Oh, if I'm lying
