Chicken, chicken you can't roost too high for me 

Chicken, chicken, come on out of that tree

Chicken, chicken you can't roost too high for me 

 

C is the way to begin

H the next letter in

I is am third

C for to season the bird

K is the filling in

E I'm near the end

C.H.I.C.K.E.N.

That’s the way to spell chicken
