Now Amos Moses was a Cajun he lived by himself in
the swamp He haunted alligators for a livin' he
just knock 'em in the head with a stump The
Louisiana law's gonna get ya Amos It ain't legal
huntin' alligators down in the swamp boy Now
everybody blames his old man for makin' him mean
as a snake When Amos Moses was a boy his daddy
would use him for alligator bait

Tie a rope around his waist throw him in the swamp
Alligator bait in the Louisiana bayou

About forty five minutes southeast of Tippidoe
Louisiana Live a man called Doc Millsap and his
pretty wife Hannah Well they raised up a son that
could eat up his weight in groc'ries Named him

Now folks around south Louisiana said Amos was a
hell of a man He could trap the biggest the
meanest alligator and just use only one hand
That's all he got left cause the alligator bit him
Left arm gone clean up to the elbow Well the
sheriff got wind that Amos was in the swamp
trappin' alligator skins So he snook in the swamp
gonna get the boy but he never come out again

Well I wonder where the Louisiana sheriff went to
Well you can sure get lost in the Louisiana bayou
About forty five minutes... About forty five
minutes...
