Please help me to find this movie; I'm going absolutely crazy trying to find a movie that I watched as a child. It was a muppet-type movie, but I'm not sure if it was a Jim Henson production. I thought it was, but cannot find it anywhere, mostly because I do not know the title. I think it was about farm animals trying to escape before the farmer killed them, or something to this effect. I don't remember much, but I know I loved it and I would really like to purchase the video. I also remember parts of a song that a rooster sang in the movie. It went something like: "Swimmin' in gravy, carrots and collars, Old man larkhart, wishin' on my wishbone. That's why I'm singing the cock-a-doodle-oodle-oodle blues."
Any help you can give me would be GREATLY appreciated! :) Thanks so much!

The movie is called "The Muppet Musicians of Bremen" (1972) and yes, it's Jim Henson's Muppets... it's narrated by Kermit the Frog. I saw this when I was little too, and I also remember the song by the rooster! :)

Unfortunately it's not available on DVD or VHS. But you can read more about it at the Internet Movie Database:

It's called The Muppet musicians of Bremen"It's Out there on VHS it's just hard to find.I bought a copy from a mom and Pop Video shop that was going out of business in the early nineties. My daughter loved it and being a hard core muppet fan;definitely remember seeing this back in 1972.
