1
Now Amos Moses was a Cajun he lived by himself in the swamp
2
He haunted alligators for a livin' he just knock 'em in the head with a stump
3
The Louisiana law's gonna get ya Amos
4
It ain't legal huntin' alligators down in the swamp boy
5
Now everybody blames his old man for makin' him mean as a snake
6
When Amos Moses was a boy his daddy would use him for alligator bait
7
Tie a rope around his waist throw him in the swamp
8
Alligator bait in the Louisiana bayou
9
About forty five minutes southeast of Tippidoe Louisiana
10
Live a man called Doc Millsap and his pretty wife Hannah
11
Well they raised up a son that could eat up his weight in groc'ries
12
Named him after the man of the cloth called him Amos Moses
13
Now folks around south Louisiana said Amos was a hell of a man
14
He could trap the biggest the meanest alligator and just use only one hand
15
That's all he got left cause the alligator bit him
16
Left arm gone clean up to the elbow
17
Well the sheriff got wind that Amos was in the swamp trappin' alligator skins
18
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
