I am an only child born of the wild
Riddled to spend my time defending the land
You are the only one born in the sun
Riddled to spend your time defending my plan

Dead dog on the highway
Median cats are growling at me
I turn my lights on brighter
I'm counting through the night ride

And it's one more life for the taker (Chickenman Chickenman)
And it's one more song for the maker(Chickenman Chickenman)

On the road to Athens
I saw a dead deer on the highway
I slipped into a desert
I killed five prairie dogs and a rabbit

I was running down on Queen Street
I saw a woman on the sidewalk
She was beaten by a stranger
Danger danger danger

And it's one more life for the taker (Chickenman Chickenman Chickenman hold my hand)
And it's one more song for the maker (Hold my hand Chickenman)

I was on the road to Austin
I met this man on the highway
He sold me junk and conversation
He was wise and dirty from the weather

I said darkness goes into darkness
All the carnage of my journeys
Makes it hard to keep on giving
He said you got a lot of road left child, you better start living

Give me one more life then, he said you gotta pay for that Chickenman
Give me one more song then, he said you gotta pay for that too Chickenman
Give me one more, one more, Chickenman Chickenman Chickenman hold my hand

I am an only child born of the wild
Riddled to spend my time defending the land
You are the only one born in the sun
Riddled to spend your time defending my plan

I went looking for a car, found myself beneath the stars
I went looking for a girl, found a man and his world
Chickenman Chickenman Chickenman hold my hand
Chickenman Chickenman Chickenman hold my hand
I am an only child hold my hand
I am an only child hold my hand

I went looking for a car, found myself beneath the stars
I went looking for a girl, found a man and his world
Chickenman Chickenman Chickenman hold my hand
Chickenman Chickenman Chickenman hold my hand

Chickenman Chickenman Chickenman hold my hand (hold my hand)
Chickenman Chickenman Chickenman hold my hand (hold my hand)
Chickenman Chickenman Chickenman hold my hand (hold my hand)
