When I ’fleck o’ Eastah cum,
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
Gits mah whol’ soul all er hum.
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
When de chickens flopp dey wings,
Roostah cro’, de pullets sings,
Gib me ’bove all uddah things—
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
When de little chicks er creep,
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
Run kerfrolic peep! peep! peep!!
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
Appetite gits sort impressed,
Wood go good, roas’ chicken breas’,
Still goes beddah, nebahless.
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
When eroun’ de ol’ fiah place
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
Eggs look yo’ squah in de face,
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
Git ’em fryin’ in de pan,
Soun’ lak music o’ de ban’,
Chillun? Whee! But hain’t dey gran’.
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
Eat ’em poach ’er eat ’em bile,
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
Make yo’ hit yo’ granny, chile.
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
When yo’ eat ’em scramble, son,
Feel dat yo’ kood lif er ton,
Er brack bar yo’ kood out run.
Eggs! eggs!! eggs!!!
