Amos Moses

歌詞

Yeah here comes Amos Now Amos Moses was a Cajun he lived by himself in the swamp He hunted alligators for a livin' he’d 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 and throw him in the swamp ha ha ha Alligator bait in the Louisiana bayou About forty five minutes southeast of Thibodaux Louisiana Lived 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 after the man of the cloth called him Amos Moses Yeah ha ha Now all the folks around south Louisiana said Amos was a hell of a man He could trap the biggest the meanest alligator and just use one hand That's all he got left cause the alligator bit him ha ha ha Left arm gone clean up to the elbow Well the sheriff got wind that Amos was in the swamp trappin' alligator skins So he snuck 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 southeast of Thibodaux Louisiana Lived a cat 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 after a man of the cloth called him Amos Moses Sit down on 'em Amos make it count son About forty five minutes southeast of Thibodaux Louisiana Lived a cat called Doc Millsap and his pretty wife Hannah
