(verse 1)   Down in Louisiana   Where the alligators grow so mean   There lived a young girl that I swear to the world   Made the alligators look tame   Polk salad Annie   ’Gators got your granny   Everybody said it was a shame   That the mama was working on the chain gang   What a mean vicious woman   (verse 2)   Everyday before suppertime   She’d go down by the truck patch   And pick her a mess of Polk salad   And carry it home in a tote sack   Polk salad Annie   ’Gators got you granny   Everybody said it was a shame   ’Cause the mama was working on the chain gang   Whoo a wretched spiteful straight-razor totin woman   Lord have mercy   (bridge)   Sock a little Polk salad to me   Yeah you know i need me a mess of it yeah   (verse 3)   Her daddy was  lazy and  no count   Claimed he had a bad back   All her brothers were fit for   Was stealing watermelons out of my truck   (chorus)    Polk salad Annie   ’Gators got your granny   Everybody said it was a shame   For the mama was working on the chain-gang   Sock a little Polk salad to me   You know i need me a mess of it   You sock a little   Hey hey hey yeah yeah   Chic a bon chic a bon chic a bon bon bon bon   Chic a bon chic a bon chic a bon bon bon bon   Sock a little Polk salad to him   You know what meets a meal mention   Sock a little Polk salad to him   You know i need me a mess of it   Chinc chinc chinc chin ling ling ling
