Stranger – Poke Salad Lyrics

Electronic

Down in Louisiana
Where the alligators grow so mean
There lived a youg girl, I swear to the world
Made the alligators look tame
Polk Salad Annie
The gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
'Cause her momma was a-workin' on the chain gang

Her daddy was lazy, no 'count
Claimed that he had a bad back
Brothers were crazy, just as bad
Stealing watermelons out of my truck patch
Polk Salad Annie
The gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
Her momma was a-workin' on the chain gang

Every night about suppertime
She'd go down to the turnip patch
Pick her a mess of Polk Salad
Carry it home in a tote sack
Polk Salad Annie
Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
'Cause her momma was a-workin' on the chain gang
Polk Salad Annie

Yeah, make a little cornbread
Hmm
Some fatback

Whoa!
