|
Alligator |
|
Sleepy Alligator in the noon day sun, |
|
Lyin' by the river just like he usually done. |
|
Call for his whiskey, he can call for his tea, |
|
Call all he want to, but he can't call for me. |
|
Oh no! I've been there before, |
|
And I ain't gonna come around here any more. |
|
Creepy alligator coming all around the bend, |
|
Shoutin' about the times when we was mutual friends, |
|
I checked my memory and I checked it quick, yes I will. |
|
I checked it runnin' some old kind of trick. |
|
Oh no! Well I've been there before, |
|
And I ain't gonna come around here any more. |
|
Sailin' down the river in an old canoe, |
|
A bunch of and an old tennis shoe. |
|
Out of the river all ugly and green, |
|
Came the biggest old alligator that I've ever seen! |
|
Teeth big and pointy and his eyes were buggin' out, |
|
Contracted the union, put the beggars to rout. |
|
Screamin' and yellin', he was pickin' his chops, |
|
He never runs he just stumbles and hops. |
|
Just out of prison on ten dollars bail, |
|
Mumblin' bitches and waggin' his tail. |
