Way down south where the gators and the cotton mops are.
I see something down there y'all that took my breath away.
I saw a black cattle, he was real slow.
Way down the swamps where men dare go.
The women went down slowly, they said a sugar with no hand.
Well I spoke their trimmed in y'all, never be so damn slow.
