Lyrics:
If some of y'all never been down South too much I'm gonna tell you a little bit about this So that you'll understand what I'm talking about Down there we have a plant that grows Out in the woods and the fields Looks somethin' like turnip greens Everybody calls it polk salad, polk salad Used to know a girl that lived down there And she'd go out in the evenings and pick a mess of it Carry it home and cook it for supper, 'Cause that's about all they had to eat, they did all right I'm down in Louisiana Where the alligators grow so mean There lived a girl that I swear to the world Made the alligators look tame Polk salad Annie, polk salad Annie Everybody said it was a shame 'Cause her mama was workin' on the chain-gang A mean, vicious woman Now everyday before supper time She'd go down by the truck patch And pick her a mess of polk salad And carry it home in a tote sack Polk salad Annie, the gators got you, granny Everybody said it was a shame 'Cause her mama was a workin' on the chain-gang A wretched, spiteful, straight-razor totin' woman Lord have mercy, pick me a mess of it Her daddy was lazy and no count Claimed he had a bad back All her brothers were fit for Was stealin' watermelons out of my truck patch Polk salad Annie, the gators got your, granny Everybody said it was a shame 'Cause her mama was a workin' on the chain gang Sock a little polk salad to me, you know I need me a mess of it Good God, got to have me [Incomprehensible]
