Robert C. Baker, died on a monday.
D                             G            A
We all know his work although few know his name.
D                       G               D
A Cornell professor, who taught poultry science,
D         G              A               D
Forever enshrined in the poultry hall of fame.

F#                Bm
84 years worth of food innovations,
E             E7           A          A7 
Chicken dogs, turkey dogs, and turkey ham,
D                            G        D
Above them all stood Baker's greatest creation,
D           G           A           D
For Baker begat chicken nuggets for man.

D               G         D
Oh, nugget man, oh nugget man,

Heading on down to the old promised land,
Bm        Bm/Bb          Bm/A           E
Happy the meals all have been since the day,
         G          A        D4 D
That the nugget man came our wa-ay.

D                    G           D
Robert C. Baker, way back in the fifties,
D                             G            A
Changed the way children and college kids eat,
D                  G          D
When he invented a way to get breading,
   D           G         A           D
To adhere much better to raw chicken meat.

    F#                       Bm
His new method led fast food chains in the eighties,
     E         E7            A               A7 
To develop and market a new bite-sized snack food,
D                                G                     D
Made from mechanically recovered meat and anti-foaming products,
D                  G                  A                    D
Reconstituted meat slurry and chicken skin for its binding properties.

D               G         D
Oh, nugget man, oh nugget man,
D                       G           A
Heading on down to the old promised land,
Bm             Bm/Bb          Bm/A       E
Guts beaks and feet now don't get thrown away,
          G          A        D4 D
Since the nugget man came our wa-ay.

    D                       G          D
The king of the burgers and popeye are mourning.
    D                       G        A
The colonel has arranged a 21 gun salute.
    D                            G            D
The churches are silent, but for poor Wendy's weeping,
    D               G          A         D
And Ronald has hung up his big red shiny shoes.

F#                      Bm
Robert C. Baker's last will was specific,
         E           E7             A              A7 
That his bones be removed and he be ground up real fine,
        D                     G               D
And to place his remains into small cardboard coffins ,
    D        G      A        D
And bury the pieces six at a time.

D               G         D
Oh, nugget man, oh nugget man,
D                       G           A
Heading on down to the old promised land,
Bm        Bm/Bb          Bm/A           E
Dipped into his honey-mustard filled grave,
         G          A        D4 D
That the nugget man came our wa-ay.

D
Nugget man...
