The Lousisana law gonna get you, Amos!
It ain't legal huntin' alligator down in the swamp, boy!
   a
Well, everybody blamed his old man

    b                 D7
For makin' him mean as a snake.

Named him after a man of the cloth,
Called him Amos Moses.
   A
Now all the folks around south Louisiana
      B
Said Amos was a hell of a man.
        D7
He could trap the biggest,
   D7
The meanest alligator,
        D7
And just use one hand.
RIFF
That's all he got left cuz the alligator bit it!
Left arm gone clean up to the elbow!
           A
Well, the Sheriff got wind that Amos
             B
Was in the swamp tracking alligator skin.
        D7
So he snuck in the swamp, gonna get the boy.
But he never come out again.
RIFF
Well, I wonder where the Louisiana Sheriff went to?
You can sure get lost in the Louisiana Bayou!
