Blood,           gator blood, I got gator blood
 
 
Chicken on a hotplate gobbledegook
Come on up, honey and take a look

Blood, gator blood, I got gator blood

A chicken show it ain´t worth a damn

Butter paddle, buck´n wing
Kid´s got a winner bonafide hit
I´m gonna have my dinner on a spit
Blood, gator blood, I got gator blood
 
Hoopla, humbug, howdy-do
Gonna make you into chicken stew
Alligator in the mud
Don´t you know I got gator blood
Gator blood, I got gator blood

Never lend a dollar to your good friend Tom
Hogwash Holler is where he´s from
If you got treasure all in a vault
And he gets you, baby that´s your own fault
