Chicken Train by the Ozark Mountain Daredevils

First time we ever played this song as a band...first time Hector and Eric ever even HEARD the song! If you can ignore the guy toward the end of the video who parked himself in front of the camera, it's a real hoot!

First song I heard of OMD's - then I heard Jackie Blue X )

I can't remember the first OMD song I ever heard @tellyisrubbish but Chicken Train has sure remained popular!

[diezelfitter]

It never ceases to amaze me how much this silly song has meant to so many people. We play it at every performance and the reaction is always the same....everyone loves it! We never practice it (bad luck) so it's a brand new song every time we play it. Glad to hear your grandson enjoyed it, melessajane. penwok, when you live near the home of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils like we do, you own a copy of the Quilt LP!

wheres the harmonica!?

[diezelfitter]

We were between harmonica players at the time. Yep, it' s just not the same train without the harmonica, is it?

Been singing this to my grandson for a year now. I only remembered it was from the 70,s. He's 16 months old + doesn't like trains he can't see. Played this for him. He liked it. Thanks for posting it + thanks to u-tube.

Chicken train is why I learned to play the harp and still my favorite song to blow!!!!!!!!!! Have loved this song since I was a wee boy when my older bro bought the LP til, well, forever!

Long live the Quilt LP
