1
If some of y'all never been down South too much
2
I'm gonna tell you a little bit about this
3
So that you'll understand what I'm talking about
4
Down there we have a plant that grows
5
Out in the woods and the fields
6
Looks somethin' like turnip greens
7
Everybody calls it polk salad, polk salad
8
Used to know a girl that lived down there
9
And she'd go out in the evenings and pick a mess of it
10
Carry it home and cook it for supper,
11
'Cause that's about all they had to eat, they did all right
12
I'm down in Louisiana
13
Where the alligators grow so mean
14
There lived a girl that I swear to the world
15
Made the alligators look tame
16
Polk salad Annie, polk salad Annie
17
Everybody said it was a shame
18
'Cause her mama was workin' on the chain-gang
19
A mean, vicious woman
20
Now everyday before supper time
21
She'd go down by the truck patch
22
And pick her a mess of polk salad
23
And carry it home in a tote sack
24
Polk salad Annie, the gators got you, granny
25
Everybody said it was a shame
26
'Cause her mama was a workin' on the chain-gang
27
A wretched, spiteful, straight-razor totin' woman
28
Lord have mercy, pick me a mess of it
29
Her daddy was lazy and no count
30
Claimed he had a bad back
31
All her brothers were fit for
32
Was stealin' watermelons out of my truck patch
33
Polk salad Annie, the gators got your, granny
34
Everybody said it was a shame
35
'Cause her mama was a workin' on the chain gang
36
Sock a little polk salad to me, you know I need me a mess of it
37
Good God, got to have me
38
