It ain't legal huntin' alligator down in the swamp now
Well everyone blamed his ol' man
For makin' him mean as a snake
When Amos Moses was a boy, his daddy
Would use him for alligator bait
Tie a rope around his neck and choke him in the swamp
Yeah, alligator bait in the Louisiana Bayou.

Live a man named Doc Milsap and pretty wife Hanna

They raised up a son who could eat his weight in grocerieeees
Spoken: Named him after a man of the cloth, called him Amos Moses
Now the folks around south Louisiana
Said Amos was a helluva man
He could trap the biggest, meanest alligator
And just use one hand
That's all he got left 'cause the alligator bit it hahaha
Left arm gone clean up the elbow
Well the sheriff got wind that Amos
Was in the swamp trappin' alligator skin
So he snuck in the swamp. Gonna get the boy,
But he never come out again
Well, wonder where the Louisiana sheriff went to
Now you can sure get lost in the Louisiana bayou
