Let Sean Hayes ( @rattlesnakecharm ) bless your ears to one of our favorite songs written by one of our favorite storytellers.
A great tale written from an engagement with a fortune teller wearing a fork suit, a James Brown concert and a chicken with the powers of Nostradamus. Something you could only experience in the south! Thank you Sean Hayes for having us!

Finger picked funk. Groovy.
You have a talent for spotting great music, westernAF, and a great capacity of keeping it coming consistently! Another great tune added to the collection
Sean blew it away! Such an amazing voice. The nuances are better on here than on the album.
I used to listen to this song all the time on my little ipod shuffle. A good walkin' down the street song. Nice to hear again
Ive loved Sean since I was 15 I think so 10 years now. His music reaches deep into your soul. In my opinion his style of music and songwriting is my favorite of any musician. My all time favorite "calling all cars" I think defines his style to anyone who is new to him. Try also garden, soul shaker and definetly drop down. His vocals on that track are unreal. I love you Sean you've been there for me through good times and bad. Thank you.
I can still remember the first time I ever heard him play. Powerful Stuff on an old pandora station in my freshman year of high school.
he’s one of the reasons I started buying and seeking out different music.
Never seen someone look old and young at the same time. Love this song, I named my chicken Alabama
I'm in love with this tune.
That was outstanding. Thanks...
Garden, Ft me right up are other ones. Thanks Sean. Right songs at the right time for me
First heard you on a Subaru commercial. Loved all your music since.
Omg so glad I found this.... Love this tune... Been trying to find a version with the story for about a decade!!! ❤️
I like it!
unreal
Man! I’ve loved Sean Hayes for years! So cool to see he’s still killing and making it on here! Kind of the first folk artist I ever jammed!
Fuckin nailed it
Yeah thats pruddy badass.
This is a song u start to feel 30 seconds in, its strait "Strait Out The Coop"!
“I’m an Alabama chicken and I wanna be free...”
Neato, im here to say something useful instead of making known i am "the 8th". Really good vocals! Its very different, good different. Has a lot of soul in my opinion. Im a sucker for songs with a good story behind it, and this one sure has!
Can we get Gonzo to sing this to his hens?
Dig it
Sean sure looks different than when he stared on Will & Grace.
Neato I'm third.
It's almost rap for a sec
Neato I'm second
Neato I'm fifth
Neato im sixth
Its a little unsettling that adults are actually using the word neato and worrying about comment placement. Nice tune though, pretty catchy, and with a cool background story.
Have a neato day there bud. I'll be the first to tell ya.
That's not so neato of you
Neato I’m first
Neato I'm fourth
Gave thumbs down. No offence. I'm a better musician.
-Sean B. Hayes
Man, this song and the entire album has blessed my ears and soul for so many years. There's something in Sean's voice that reaches deep donw in my bones...
I've also journeyed on mushrooms with his music and boy is it powerful.
Forever grateful you exist
love love love

this song would be legendary with a big band doing backing music
idk man, I love the simplicity of a man and his instrument... but it's just a matter of taste
Interesting one! Choppy playing and unusual voice, like it a lot, another good pick by you guys!

[Verse 1]
Possum trot, copper ring round
And the dog needs something to eat
Old Ned Berry in a Cadillac hearse
Down a Birmingham street
Spoon man's here, and the folk man's near
Snake charm in between
Five fellow freaks in a Cadillac hearse
Down a Birmingham street
[Chorus]
Alabama Chicken, show me the way
Alabama Chicken, got something to say
Look him in the eye, bird don't lie
Alabama chicken
Voodoo, booday
Voodoo, booday
[Verse 2]
Blue bottle fly, a fish is on the wall
and the pot's got a scary face
Old Ned Berry spinning his wheel
On a Birmingham day
Bottle top drum and a horse head with rust
The bird done lost its beak
Blow your horn for a green dinosaur
On a Birmingham street
[Chorus]
Alabama Chicken, show me the way
Alabama Chicken, got something to say
Look him in the eye, bird don't lie
Alabama chicken
Voodoo, booday
Voodoo, booday
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
Old James Brown came to get down
Old James Brown
Old James Brown came to get down
Old James Brown
Blow your horn, the fork man's coming
Blow your horn, the fork man
Blow your horn, the fork man's coming
Blow your horn, the fork man
[Chorus]
Alabama chicken, show me the way
Alabama chicken, got something to say
Look him in the eye, bird don't lie
Alabama chicken
Voodoo, booday
Voodoo, booday
[Bridge]
Cluck old hen
Cluck I said
You the best hen that ever laid an egg
Sometimes one, sometimes two
Sometimes enough for the whole crew
Cluck old hen
Cluck I said
You the best hen that ever laid an egg
Sometimes one, sometimes two
Sometimes enough for the whole crew
[Chorus]
Alabama chicken, show me the way
Alabama chicken, got something to say
Look him in the eye, bird don't lie
Alabama chicken
Voodoo, booday
Voodoo, booday
First heard him performing at the Bicycle Music Festival in Golden Gate Park back in 2010. He continues to be amazing. 🥰
Awesome. Sean Hayes is a national treasure. One of the best lyricists around. Cool version.
Great version of this song and cool to hear the story behind it!
Very creative lyrics
👍
booboo woowoo doodoo
This man's such a legend
Neato no matter number what.
Sean is criminally underrated, that whole Alabama chicken is incredible
Meh
I'm a little upset, I was expecting the same melody as the johnny rebel song about a certain individual from Alabama hahaha
That's on the channel RACIST AF. Go get yer fill there.
