Lyrics
[Intro] What are you lookin' at back there? Some of y'all never been down south too much I'm gonna tell you a little story so's you'll understand what I'm talkin' about Down there, we have a plant that grows out in the woods and the fields And it looks somethin' like a turnip green And everybody calls it polk salad Now that's polk salad, ho Anyway, I used to know a girl who lived down there She'd go out in the evenings and pick her a mess of it Carry it home and cook it for supper 'Cause that's about all they had to eat But they did alright [Verse 1] Down in Louisiana Where the alligators grow so mean Lived a girl that I swear to the world Made the alligators look tame [Chorus] Polk Salad Annie Gators got your granny Everybody said it was a shame 'Cause her mama was a-workin' on the chain gang [Post-Chorus] A mean, vicious Straight-razor-totin' woman Lord, have mercy [Verse 2] Every day before suppertime She'd go down by the truck patch And pick her a mess of polk salad And carry it home in a tow sack [Chorus] Polk Salad Annie Gators got your granny Everybody said it was a shame 'Cause her mama was a-workin' on the chain gang [Bridge] Sock a little polk salad (Oh) [Verse 3] Her daddy was a lazy no-count Claimed he had a bad back All her brothers were fit for Was stealin' watermelons out of my truck patch [Chorus] Polk Salad Annie Gators got your granny Everybody said it was a shame 'Cause her mama was a-workin' on the chain gang [Interlude] Sock a little polk salad to me You know I need a Sock a little [Outro] Yeah You're right, you're right Sock a little polk salad to me You know I need a real mess of it Sock a little Know I need a real mess of it Sock a little, sock a [Spoken Outro] Thank you Thank you very much
