[Verse 1]
Dm
The Little Red Hen found a grain of wheat,
C
Said "This looks good enough to eat,
G7
But I'll plant it instead, make me some bread,"
Am Dm
Said to the other guys down the street,
G7 C
"Who will help me plant this wheat?"
[Chorus]
A
"Not I!" said the dog and the cat.
E7
"Not I!" said the mouse and the rat.
A E7
"I will then," said the Little Red Hen,
A
And she did.
[Verse 2]
Dm
Well the sun shone bright, the rain it blew,
C
The grain of wheat it grew and grew,
G7
It began to sprout, headed out,
Am Dm
Till it was ripe enough.
G7 C
Said, "Who will help me harvest this stuff?"
[Chorus]
A
"Not I!" said the dog and the cat.
E7
"Not I!" said the mouse and the rat.
A E7
"I will then," said the Little Red Hen,
A
And she did.
[Verse 3]
Dm
She lugged it to the miller to grind to flour,
C
Cause the others would furnish her no manpower,
G7
And at baking time they all declined
Am Dm
To help her with the job;
G7 C
They were a dog gone no-good mob.
[Chorus]
A
"Not I!" said the dog and the cat.
E7
"Not I!" said the mouse and the rat.
A E7
"I will then," said the Little Red Hen,
A
And she did.
