Amos Moses

[Spoken]
Here come Amos
[Verse 1]
Now Amos Moses was a Cajun
He lived by himself in the swamp
He hunted alligator for a living
He just knock them in the head with a stump!
Louisiana law's gonna getcha Amos!
It ain't legal huntin alligator
Down in the swamp now!
Well everyone blamed his old man
For making him mean as a snake
When Amos Moses was a boy
His Daddy would use him for alligator bait
Tie a rope around his neck and chuck him in the swamp
Alligator bait in a Louisiana bayou!

[Chorus]
About 45 minutes southeast of Tibido Louisiana
Lived a man named Doc Mill Sap
And his pretty wife Hannah
They raised up a son who could
Eat his weight in groceries!
They named him after a man of cloth
Called him Amos Moses

[Verse 2]
Now the folks around South Louisiana
Thought Amos was a hell of a man
He could trap the biggest, meanest alligator
And just use one hand
That's all he got left
Cause an alligator bit it!
Left arm gone, up to the elbow!
Well the sheriff got wind that Amos
Was in the swamp trapping alligator skin
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?
You can sure get lost in the Louisiana bayou!

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Sit down on em Amos!

[Chorus]

[Outro]
His name is Amos Moses
Amos Amos Amos Moses
