Lyrics for Album: I'm One of You
4
Spoken: Here come Amos
5
Now Amos Moses was a Cajun
6
He lived by hisself in the swamp
7
He hunted alligator for a livin'
8
He just knock them in the head with a stomp
9
Louisiana law gonna getcha Amos
10
It ain't legal huntin' alligator
11
Down in the swamp now
12
Well everyone blamed his old man
13
For makin' him mean as a snake
14
When Amos Moses was a boy
15
His Daddy would use him for alligator bait
16
Tie a rope â'round his neck and chuck â'im in the swamp
17
Alligator bait in the Louisiana bayou
18
About 45 minutes southeast of Tibado Louisiana
19
Lived a man named Doc Milsap
20
And his pretty white Hannah
21
They raised up a son who could
22
Eat his weight in groceries
23
Named him after a man of cloth
24
Called him Amos Moses
25
Now the folks around South Louisiana
26
Said Amos was a hell of a man
27
He could trap the biggest meanest alligator
28
And just use one hand
29
That's all he got left
30
Cause an alligator bit it
31
Left arm gone, clean up to the elbow
32
Well the sheriff got wind that Amos
33
Was in the swamp trappin' alligator skin
34
So he snuck in the swamp
35
Gonna get the boy
36
But he never come out again
37
Whoa! I wonder where the
38
Louisiana sheriff went to?
39
Now you can sure get lost in the Louisiana bayou
40
About 45 minutes southeast of Tibado Louisiana
41
Lived a cat named Doc Milsap
42
And his pretty white Hannah
43
They raised up a son who could
44
Eat his weight in groceries
45
Named him after a man of cloth
46
Called him Amos Moses
47
Sit down on â'em Amos
48
About 45 minutes southeast of Tibado Louisiana
49
Lived a cat named Doc Milsap
50
And his pretty white Hannah
51
They raised up a son who could
52
Eat his weight in groceries
53
Named him after a man of cloth
54
Called him Amos Moses
55
His name is Amos Moses
