Rooster   (Cantrell)

	Ain't found a way to kill me yet
	Eyes burn with stinging sweat
	Seems every path leads me to nowhere
	Wife and kids household pet
	Army green was no safe bet
	The bullets scream to me from somewhere

	Here they come to snuff the rooster
	Yeah here come the rooster, you know he ain't gonna die

	Walkin' tall machine gun man
	They spit on me in my home land
	Gloria sent me pictures of my boy
	Got my pills 'gainst mosquito death
	My buddy's breathin' his dyin' breath
	Oh god please won't you help me make it through

	Here they come to snuff the rooster
	Yeah here come the rooster, you know he ain't gonna die

About this song

"Rooster" by Alice in Chains is a song from their second album, "Dirt," released in 1992. The song was written by guitarist Jerry Cantrell as a tribute to his father, who served in the Vietnam War. The main riff features Cantrell's signature use of drop D tuning, adding a heavy and dark tone to the song. The haunting vocals by Layne Staley and the dynamic shifts in the song contribute to its powerful and emotional impact.
