"Chicken Fat" (also known as "The Youth Fitness Song") is a 1962 song written by Broadway composer Meredith Willson (The Music Man, The Unsinkable Molly Brown) and performed by actor/singer Robert Preston. It was commissioned as part of the President's Council on Physical Fitness.[1]
"Chicken Fat" was the theme song for President John F. Kennedy's youth fitness program, and millions of 7-inch 33 RPM discs which were pressed for free by Capitol Records were heard in elementary, junior high school and high school gymnasiums across the United States throughout the 1960s and 1970s.[2] Willson contacted Fitness Council administrator Dick Snider with an offer to write a song to be used to promote exercise for children. Willson's offer was accepted and he consulted with Physical Fitness Council director Ted Forbes to ensure that the song would be effective.[1] The bouncy chorus ended with the words "Go, you chicken fat, go!"[1][2]
The song was originally recorded on a Warner Bros. Pictures soundstage in early 1962 at the same time as the recordings for the film soundtrack of the Warner Bros. film The Music Man, starring Robert Preston. Recorded on the same three-track 35mm magnetic film as the soundtrack recordings, it features Preston's vocal isolated on one track, with the Bernie Green Orchestra isolated on the second track and a chorus of boys and girls isolated on the third track. However, the location of the original multi-track tapes is unknown. As a result, with only the full-track quarter-inch 15 IPS monophonic composite master being available from which Capitol mastered their records in 1962, no stereophonic version of the song is currently possible and it remains in monophonic sound on the CD re-issue.[2]
"We're Going to the Catskills!" (2018 Season 2, Episode 4) of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel used "Chicken Fat" as the morning calisthenics song for Abe (Tony Shalhoub), despite the anachronism (the episode takes place in 1959).[9]
However, over 13 years since its release, the popular Harlem-based song and dance sensation resurfaced as an international craze, thanks to a remake by some of the biggest names in international pop: South Korean superstar J-Hope of BTS fame and Mexican-American hitmaker Becky G.
The Gobble Chicken Song is a song by Joe Hawley. It's just a silly, little Joe Hawley original and not technically a Tally Hall song. Joe made it as part of a collection of demos he recorded to show Rob what he's capable of.
While the chicken has been described as funky, that's probably the only cool cred it has going for it. It doesn't have the majesty of the bald eagle, the historical significance or stature of the turkey, the literary significance of the raven, or the fear factor of the falcon, but there sure are a lot of mostly goofy songs about the world's go-to edible bird.
Rufus Thomas, "Do the Funky Chicken"A disc jockey in Memphis, Rufus Thomas had a great sense of what dancers like. While it doesn't happen much anymore -- "Wobble, Baby" would be the most notable exception -- songs specifically about a certain dance with its own steps were very popular through the Seventies: "Mashed Potatoes," "The Twist," "The Dog," "The Stroll" etc.
Little Feat, "Dixie Chicken"Of course, the pejorative term "chick" has been part of hepcat jive since way back in the day. Lowell George and Little Feat hit a nerve with their tune just as the bloom was wilting off the flower of hippiedom. George, who learned his funkification via the Meters, removed any pejorative aspect by lovingly telling the woman he's singing to if she will be his Dixie chicken, he'll be her Tennessee lad. The best part of this is that most Aggies think Dixie Chicken is a bar-restaurant in College Station and have no clue that the name is derived from the tune.
Hasil Adkins, "Chicken Walk"Rockabilly wildman Hasil Adkins did his own chicken dance number in 1962. With only guitar and drums, Adkins cooks up a kooky, propulsive racket to accompany his lyric, which is really little more than introducing a new dance and then giving instructions for it:
Quiver yourself from head to toe, do your stuff wherever you goDo your stuff up on the floor, do your stuff wherever you goCome on, baby, do a chicken-chicken walkPush in, a-push out, push in, a-push out
Okay, you get it. No one said it was rocket surgery. Adkins was such an aficionado of chicken he issued an entire chicken-themed album, Poultry in Motion: The Hasil Adkins Chicken Collection 1955-1999.
Merle Travis, "I Like My Chickens Fryin' Size"One of the cleverest songwriters in country music's golden era, Merle Travis was a hipster before most people had ever heard the term, although he was a hillbilly hipster for sure. Back in the days before anyone had heard about political correctness, Travis wrote a tongue-in-cheek ode to women and sex that must have caused many a knowing smile -- or smirk.
I like my chickens fryin' size when they're hangin' around my penI like 'em young and tender and not so wise like some old stewin' hen'Cause she's done seen a lot of every rooster on the blockYeah, I like my chickens fryin' size when I get my skillet hot
The Meters, "Chicken Strut"By the time they dropped Struttin' in 1970, the Meters were already near the top of the heap when it came to funk. The band had developed its own style based on the rhythms of traditional New Orleans second line funeral music, and with maestro Allen Toussaint at the controls the Meters laid down a wicked groove that definitely sounds like it was composed while watching the choppy gait of chickens pecking in the yard. The tune is instrumental except for background shouts of "keep on struttin'," etc. "Chicken Strut" was the single released off the album.
Keeping storied traditions alive is a part of what makes the rural Mardi Gras celebrations throughout the Cajun prairie so special. There is a rich heritage of song, dance and antics that unfolds annually in rural countrysides from Elton to Tee-Mamou and points in between.
Rather than following their Crescent City revelers with grand themed parades and parties, costumed revelers jaunt through the countryside dancing, singing and chasing chickens in open fields in exchange for ingredients for a big pot of gumbo.
At each stop the captain asks permission from the homeowner for the Mardi Gras to visit. Once permission is granted, the captain waves his flag and the riders dismount and crawl towards the house on hands and knees, whooping loudly. They dance and sing in exchange for a live chicken, rice, other ingredients for their gumbo or money. Before leaving they invite their hosts to come share in their gumbo that evening.
The costumes are as important a part of the ritual as chasing the chicken. The men don colorful, handmade costumes covered with patches and fringe, topped with a tall pointed hat known as a capuchon and a wire mesh or cloth mask to conceal their identity.
Skrillex curated the HOWSLA compilation, which features songs from multiple artists. OWSLA will build on its new public commitment to house by hosting a series of nights devoted to the genre at the Los Angeles club Le Jardin this summer.

The transferred microbiota from mother to baby constitutes the initial infant gastrointestinal microbiota and has an important influence on the development and health of infants in human. However, the reproductive tract microbiota of avian species and its inheritance have rarely been studied. We aimed to characterize the microbial community in the chicken reproductive tract and determine the origin of the chicken embryo gut microbiota. Microbiota in four different portions of chicken oviduct were determined using 16S rRNA metagenomic approach with the IonTorrent platform. Additionally, we analyzed the mother hen's magnum and cloaca, descendent egg, and embryo gut microbiota. The microbial composition and relative abundance of bacterial genera were stable throughout the entire chicken reproductive tract, without significant differences between the different parts of the oviduct. The chicken reproductive tract showed a relatively high abundance of Lactobacillus species. The number of bacterial species in the chicken reproductive tract significantly increased following sexual maturation. Core genera analysis detected 21 of common genera in the maternal magnum and cloaca, descendent egg shell, egg white, and embryo gut. Some elements of the maternal oviduct microbiota appear to be transferred to the embryo through the egg white and constitute most of the embryo gut bacterial population.
The Chicken Song is a 1986 song, and one of the most memorable, from Spitting Image. The nonsensical lyrics were written by Rob Grant and Doug Naylor, with music by Rob Grant and singer Catherine Cawood puppet.
Hold a chicken in the air, stick a deckchair up your nose,
Yes; you'll hear this song in the holiday discos!
And there's no escape, in the clubs or in the bars,
You would hear this song, if you holidayed in Mars!
