Key: A major
Verse 1
He hunted alligator for a living
He'd just knock them
in the head with a stump
It ain't legal hunting alligator down
in the swamp, boy
Verse 2
When Amos Moses was a boy
His daddy would use him
for alligator bait
and throw him in the swamp
Alligator bait in the Louisiana bayou
Bridge 1
Called him Amos Moses
Verse 3
He could trap the biggest,
the meanest alligator
And he'd just use one hand
'cause an alligator bit it
Left arm gone clear up to the elbow
Verse 4
So he snuck in the swamp to gon'
and get the boy
But he never come out again
where the Louisiana sheriff went to
Well, you can sure get lost
in the Louisiana bayou
Outro 1
Called him Amos Moses
Make it count son
[Repeat and fade]
