I'M Chicken

I’m chicken. Yeah, chicken. And I don’t mean finger lickin’. She wants me to commit, But I’m not ready yet; ‘Cause I’m chicken. Chicken. Told her how I feel. I think our love is real, But I’m chicken. Chicken. Oh, I know how it sounds; But this boy’s been around. And I been in love before You can bet, I know the score. That’s why I’m chicken. Chicken. Told her how I feel. I think our love is real, But I'm chicken. Chicken. The others all said they'd be true. They just didn’t say to who. I got tired of all the lies So it should come as no surprise That I’m chicken. Chicken. She wants me to commit, But I’m just not ready yet; ‘Cause I’m chicken. Chicken. Told her how I feel. I think our love is real, But I’m chicken. Chicken. --------------------------------------------bridge Oh, I know how it sounds; But this boy’s been around.
