Verse 1
(E minor) In
the home swamp once (B major) a year
My (E minor) relatives all (B major) gather here
For an (E minor) al ligator (B major) family (E minor) reunion
For seven nights (B major) and seven days
(E minor) We quit our solit (B major) ary ways
To bel (E minor) low, roar, (B major) sing, dance (E minor) and play
(E major) We'll thrash our (A minor) tails
(D major) We'll roar (G major) an d wail,
it's (E major) quite a (A minor) sight
When (F major) al ligator (B major) s get togeth (E minor) er
There's Uncle Bill and (B major) Cousin Dan
The (E minor) whole extended gat (B major) or clan
Six (E minor) hundred golden shining (B major)
gat (Baug) or (E minor) eyes
Some (C major) (E minor) will travel miles (B major) and miles
(E minor) To share some laughter for (B major) a while
Seventy (E minor) teeth to (B major) every happy smile (E minor) (E major)
It never (A minor) fails, joy (D major) will pre (G major) vail,
(E minor) we'll (E major) share some (A minor) tales,
when the (F major) alligator (B major) s get to (E minor) gether.
You know, when I was a young gator,
(B major) my grandfather used to tell
(E minor) me what things were like
when he was my age. (B major)
Back then, we were (E minor) con sidered
an endangered spe (B major) cies
on the brink of extinc (E minor) tion.
People were tearing up our swamp
to build strip malls and flimsy houses.
(B major) They were trying to make belt (E minor) s
and handbags
out of our (B major) skin.
Oh, mama need (Baug) s a
(E minor) new pair of shoes,
let's just go grab (B major) a gator.
Until some (E minor) people started
looking out for us,
actually protecting (E major) us.
See, we've been around
for 150 million (A minor) years.
We saw the dinosaurs come (D major) and go.
That was 65 million years (G major) ago.
(E major) I tell you what,
you stay out of our swamp,
(A minor) we'll stay out of your backyard.
Cause we're not (F major) going anywhere,
(B major) we'll see you later. (E minor)
