From the recording Lost Alligator Blues
Lyrics
Lost Alligator Blues
I was king of the bayou, livin' life just fine
Red sunrise in the mornin', orange sunset every time
Raccoons dancin' nightly, possums playin' ruse
Now the swamp got trouble — got the Lost Alligator Blues
Shake your tail — stomp them shoes
Ayee! Help me lose these alligator blues
Pythons creepin', tourists confused
I got them Lost Alligator Blues
Sugarcane water spillin', makin' everything slow
Big snakes takin' over places only gators go
Monkey in a lab coat runnin' like he's big news
Times done changed, yeah — Lost Alligator Blues
Shake your tail — stomp them shoes
Ayee! Help me lose these alligator blues
World gone sideways, what can I do
Still playin' them Lost Alligator Blues
Give me clean water, good swamp views
A fresh bas dinner — no chemicals in the ooze
Shake your tail — stomp them shoes
Ayee! Help me lose these alligator blues
Life gets crazy — dance it through
And chase them Lost Alligator Blues
Gator, gator, alligator
Go, go, gator
Go my alligator
