Now Amos Moses was a Cajun, he lived by himself in the swamp He haunted alligators for a livin' he just knock 'em in the head with a stump The Louisiana law's gonna get ya, Amos It ain't legal huntin' alligators down in the swamp, boy Now everybody blames his old 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 waist, throw him in the swamp Alligator bait in the Louisiana bayou About forty-five minutes southeast of Thibodaux Louisiana Live a man called Doc Millsap and his pretty wife Hannah Well they raised up a son that could eat up his weight in groceries Named him after the man of the cloth, called him Amos Moses Now folks around south Louisiana said Amos was a hell of a man He could trap the biggest the meanest alligator and just use only one hand That's all he got left 'cause the alligator bit him Left arm gone clean up to the elbow Well, the sheriff got wind that Amos was in the swamp trappin' alligator skins So he snook in the swamp, gonna get the boy but he never come out again Well, I wonder where the Louisiana sheriff went to Well, you can sure get lost in the Louisiana bayou About forty-five minutes About forty-five minutes
