Now Amos Moses was a Cajun
He lived by his self in the swamp
He hunted alligators for livin', yup
He just knock 'em in the head with a stump, uh
Louisiana law gonna get you, Amos
Ain't legal huntin' alligator down there the swamp, boy
Everybody blamed the old man
For makin' him mean as a snake
He used to take him out there through the river
And use him for alligator bait, uh
Tie a rope around his waist and throw him in the swamp
Alligator bait in the Louisiana Bayou
About 45 minutes southeast of Thibodaux, Louisiana
Lived a cat named Doc Milsap and his pretty wife Hanna
Well, they raised up a son who could eat up his weight in groceries
Named him after a man of the cloth
Called him Amos Moses, yes
Now everybody loved old Amos
Thought he was a hell of a man
Hit hard 'em the biggest, and the meanest alligator
And use one hand
All he had left 'cause an alligator bit it
Left arm gone clean up to the elbow
One day, the Sheriff got wind of Amos
Was in the swamp hunting alligator skin
Thought he'd go up there and sneak up on the boy
But he never come out again
Wonder where the Louisiana Sheriff got to?
Well, he's lost in the Louisiana Bayou
About 45 minutes southeast of Thibodaux, Louisiana
Lived a cat called Doc Milsap and his pretty wife Hanna
Well, they raised up a son who could eat up his weight in groceries
Named him after a man of the cloth
Called him Amos Moses, yeah
Louisiana law gonna get you, Amos
It ain't legal huntin' alligator down in the swamp, boy
Wonder where the Louisiana Sheriff got to?
Well, he's lost in the Louisiana Bayou
He lived by his self in the swamp
He hunted alligators for livin', yup
He just knock 'em in the head with a stump, uh
Louisiana law gonna get you, Amos
Ain't legal huntin' alligator down there the swamp, boy
Everybody blamed the old man
For makin' him mean as a snake
He used to take him out there through the river
And use him for alligator bait, uh
Tie a rope around his waist and throw him in the swamp
Alligator bait in the Louisiana Bayou
About 45 minutes southeast of Thibodaux, Louisiana
Lived a cat named Doc Milsap and his pretty wife Hanna
Well, they raised up a son who could eat up his weight in groceries
Named him after a man of the cloth
