This here's a rap with a reptile rhythm
To get you in the mood
To meet the king and I'm meanin' me
Amos, the Alligator Dude
When you see my beautiful big boned body
Bakin' in the bayou sun
You'll know there ain't nobody better
I'm Georgia's number one
I believe in me and my ten foot tail,
And the feats this beast can do
I'm known in the south as "Mighty Mouth"
There's nothin' I can't chew
Just look at this row of pearlies shine
Not a cavity in the line
This jaws my pride, I can open it wide
Y' oughtta drop in sometime!
Who's the swiftest swimmer in the swamp?
Amos, the Alligator Dude!
And who's the most righteous reptile 'round?
Amos, the Alligator Dude!
And who's the king of the Okefenokee?
Amos, the Alligator Dude!
Yea, Amos, Amos, the world's most famous
Amos, the Alligator Dude!
Gettin' down and dirty in the Mississippi mud
I'm still a perfect ten
A gorgeous Georgia jewel eyed gem
Of an alligator specimen
I can bat my eyelids friendly like
And charm you when I winks
I can slide along real easy then
Snap quicker than a chicken blinks
I can lay like a log in a bog so still
You hardly know I'm there
Then explode like a load of TNT
And jump start your heart with a scare
I'm warnin' y'all my breed's been banned
Ain't fillin' no poacher's sack
Try'n use my hide for your cowboy boots
And this gator's fightin' back!
Repeat
I'll take you for a romp in the swamp someday
All the way to New Orleans
I can beat a barracuda and a whole darn fleet
Of nuclear submarines
My tail can whip up a hurricane
My jaws can crush a stone,
I'm a Louisiana legend, the wildest one
The world has ever known
Now I don't look for trouble
But I ain't no lady's purse
Try catchin' me, and you're gonna be
Ridin' back home in a hearse!
So that's my story and I'm glad you give me
The time to tell it true
See you later alligator and I'm on my way
After one more quick review
To get you in the mood
To meet the king and I'm meanin' me
