Amos Moses was a |
|
Cajun and lived by himself in the swamp |
|
Hunting alligator for a living knock 'em on the head with a stump |
|
The Louisiana law's gonna get you, |
|
AmosIt ain't legal hunting alligator down in the swamp, boy |
|
Now everybody blamed his old man for raising him mean as a snake |
|
When Amos |
|
Moses was a boy, his |
|
Daddy would use him as alligator bait |
|
Tie a rope around his waist, throw him in the swamp |
|
Alligator bait on the |
|
Louisiana bayou |
|
Just about 45 minutes southeast of |
|
Tipidow, Louisiana |
|
There lived a man called |
|
Duck Bill |
|
Sam and his pretty wife |
|
HannahThey raised up a son that could eat up his weight in groceries |
|
Named him after a man of the cloth, they called him |
|
Amos Moses |
|
Now folks in |
|
South Louisiana said |
|
Amos was a helluva man |
|
He could trap the biggest, meanest alligator, he only had to use one hand |
|
That's all he got left 'cause the alligator bit him, ha ha |
|
Left arm gone clean up to the elbow |
|
Just about 45 minutes southeast of |
|
Tipidow, Louisiana |
|

|

|
Here comes |
|
Amos and you should have seen his pretty wife, |
|
HannahWell, the |
|
Sheriff got wind that |
|
Amos was in the swamp |
|
Hunting alligator skin, so he hid in the swamp, "I'm gonna get you boy" |
|
He never did come out again |
|
Well, I wonder where the |
|
Louisiana |
|
Sheriff went to? |
|
Sure can get lost in the |
|
Louisiana bayou |
