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. |
Riding down the river in an old canoe, |
A bunch of bugs 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, for the papers to route. |
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. |
