Sawgrass as far as the eye can see
She left him near mile marker fifty-three
Two lanes no street lights
She gripped the wheel peered into the night
Tryin' to forget the smell of whiskey
Speeding away down Alligator Alley

She'd been workin' her shift at the Twistee Treat
August night in nineteen-eighty-three
Clocked out locked on up
He was waitin' by his pickup truck
Wrestled her into the back seat
Drove through the dark toward Alligator Alley

Daddy always told her you gotta keep a cool head
Predators are unpredictable he said
And I won't always be there to protect ya
So fight like hell if you have to
And don't forget a knife can be a girl's best friend
Oh Alligator Alley

He was drunk she could smell the Jim Beam
She held her pocket knife where he couldn't see
He slowed down stopped short
Came around and opened up her door
Drug her out of the back seat
She said a prayer there on Alligator Alley

The struggle was brief and hard by the side of the road
How she managed to do what she did she'll never know
Left him for dead on Alligator Alley

Daddy always told her you gotta keep a cool head
Predators are unpredictable he said
And I won't always be there to protect ya
So fight like hell if you have to
And don't forget a knife can be a girl's best friend
Oh Alligator Alley

Oh oh Alligator Alley
Oh oh Alligator Alley
Oh oh Alligator Alley
Ain't gonna bother nobody no more
Ain't gonna bother nobody no more
Ain't gonna bother ain't gonna bother nobody
