A A D   F F D
 
[Verse 1]
D           F           A           C
Floyd was a trapper way back in the holler
D        F        A               C
Made moonshine so he could make a dollar
D        C     F              G
Six feet tall. Dressed in overalls
       Bb             A    G    D
And he wore himself a long gray beard
 
[Verse 2]
D          F             A        C
People say Floyd came to town one day
    D       F    A          C
But two law dogs got in his way
D           C       F          G
Floyd never hurt no one in his life
         Bb         A    G    D
But they never came back this way
         Bb         A    G    D
No, they never came back this way
 
And the people say
 
[Chorus]
A         D              F          D
Aye, aye, aye - Hear the hound dogs moan
A         D              F             D
Aye, aye, aye - Now that Floyd is long gone
        D             F
And the creeper was a creeping
        A               G
And the souls they were hollering singing
Bb        A    G    D
Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye
 
[Verse 3]
    D          F      A         C
The G-men came out to track him down
        D             F         A           C
But the swamp was too deep even one of them drowned
     D           C               F            G
They sent in the hell hounds but they turned around
        Bb        A    G    D
Singing how, how, how, how, how
Bb        A    G    D
How, how, how, how, how
 
And the creeper says
 
[Chorus]
A         D              F          D
Aye, aye, aye - Hear the hound dogs moan
A         D              F             D
Aye, aye, aye - Now that Floyd is long gone
        D             F
And the creeper was a creeping
        A               G
And the souls they were hollering singing
Bb        A    G    D
Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye

[Verse 4]
D          F              A           C
Sheriff Boudreaux came to talk to his neighbors
D              F             A          C
All they could say is he was eaten by a gator
    D            C      F             G
The legend lives on but Floyd he's at home
        Bb        A    G    D
Singing how, how, how, how, how
Bb        A    G    D
How, how, how, how, how

And the creeper was a creeping
        A               G
And the souls they were hollering
        Bb        A    G    D
Singing aye, aye, aye, aye, aye
 
[Outro]
A         D              F          D
Aye, aye, aye - Hear the hound dogs moan
A         D              F             D
Aye, aye, aye - Now that Floyd is long gone
        D             C
And the creeper was a creeping
        F               G
And the souls they were hollering singing
Bb        A    G    D
Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye

Floyd was a trapper way back in the holler
Made moonshine so he could make a dollar
Six feet tall, dressed in overalls
And wore himself a long gray beard
People say Floyd came to town one day
But two law dogs got in his way
Floyd never hurt no one in his life
But they never came back this way
No, they never came back this way
And the people say
Aye, aye, aye, aye hear the hound dogs moan
Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone
And the creeper was a creepin' and the souls they were hollerin' singin'
Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye
The G-men came out to track him down
But the swamp was too deep, even one of them drowned
They sent in the hellhounds but they turned around singing
How how how how how
And the people say
Aye, aye, aye, aye hear the hound dogs moan
Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone
And the creeper was a creepin' and the souls they were hollerin' singin'
Aye, aye, aye, aye, aye
Yeah the souls are they were cryin'
Yeah the creeper he was creepin'
Sheriff Boudreaux came to talk to his neighbors
All they could say is he was eaten by a gator
The legend lives on but Floyd he's at home singing
How how how how how
And the soul said
Aye, aye, aye, aye hear the hound dogs moan
Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone
Aye, aye, aye, aye now that Floyd is long gone
There's a full moon now
The moon was shinin' bright singing
Aye aye aye aye aye
