Help me figuring out a cartoon character I watched long ago.

I remember an animated female chasing a male and when she saw/found him she would exclaim "a man!". It was said loudly and hinted at a southern accent.

I thought it was a Looney Toons character because I thought Leghorn Foghorn was the male. But, when I looked up all the characters I didn't recognize anyone.

I thought the female was a large chicken, Miss Prissy seems to be too small.

Help - this has been driving me crazy!

Quoting Kathy:

The cartoon I'm thinking of was from my childhood - maybe the early 1960s.

Jessica does remind me of the character I remember though.

Aw shucks - thought I had it. Perhaps your movie inspired the later one ... (a.k.a. "they stole the line")

With Google I did find another Forum where somebody was talking about Foghorn Leghorn cartoons where hens with hearts swirling over their heads would exclain "a man" when they saw him. But a YouTube search didn't turn up that episode yet.

TV Tropes may be able to help.

This is the only episode I recall where Miss Prissy says, "A man!"

But assuming that is not it, I do also think I remember another that may be what you are talking about. There was a large brown-feathered chicken chasing after someone like Barnyard Dawg instead. Every time she saw him, she's say, "I maaaan!" and chase after him.  In one instance, he hid inside of a barn against a wall, and she either saw him through the window or a little hole, you hear, "A maaaan!" and pulls him out.

Then again, I could be wrong on all counts, but I could hear that voice as clear as day as soon as I read your post.
