All that #AlligatorAlcatraz can wait for now is another Amos Moses.

Now Amos Moses was a Cajun
He lived by himself in the swamp

He hunted alligator for a living
He'd just knock them in the head with a stump

The Louisiana law gonna get you, Amos
It ain't legal hunting alligator down in the swamp, boy

Now everyone blamed his old man
For making 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 and throw him in the swamp
Alligator bait in the Louisiana bayou...

...Now the folks from down south Louisiana
Said Amos was a hell of a man

He could trap the biggest, the meanest alligator
And he'd just use one hand

That's all he got left 'cause an alligator bit it
Left arm gone clear up to the elbow

Well the sheriff caught wind that Amos
Was in the swamp trapping alligator skin
So he snuck in the swamp to gon' and 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
