Written by Andy Furgeson/Red Yarn

lyrics

Well I’m goin out tonight neath the stars' silver light
I’m callin all the critters on the farm
Well we all been feelin blue and there’s just one thing to do
We’re gonna throw a party in the barn

My turkey in the straw has lost his haw-haw-haw
And I wish someone would throw my dog a bone
All my rooster used to do was cock-a-doodle-doo
But lately it’s all cock-a-doodle-don’t

It don’t matter whether you got fur or you got feathers
If you walk on four legs or on two
Well we’ll all feel better if we could all just be together
And there’s room here in my old barn for you

The pot-bellied pig has got his mask and wig
He’s dressin up in costume for the ball
And the cat has brought her fiddle and she’s playin “Hey Diddle Diddle”
And the cow’s over the moon so don’t you let her fall

The ducks and the chickens are cluckin with the guitar pickin
And the horse of course supports your choice to sing till you’re hoarse or joyfully cut a rug
Have you met Miss Wooly Sheep? She’s good company to keep
If you been stuck out in the cold and you need a hug

It don’t matter whether you got fine or fearsome weather
If your skies are gray or if your skies are blue
Well we’ll all feel better if we could all just be together
And there’s room here in my old barn for you

The new sheriff from the town just tried to shut us down
Sayin who could stay and who must leave
Aw but if you’re asking me, well the only place to be
Is wherever with whomever you feel free

So it don’t matter whether you’ve been tarred and feathered
If you got everything or nothing left to lose
Well we’ll all feel better if we could all just be together
And there’s room here in my old barn for you
Oh-oh, we got room here in our old barn for you, yes we do
