[C#m]
[B] [C#m]
[B] [C#m]
And I'm going to sing a song called,
I'm Going to Sing a Song.
Down on the [E] bayou's Louisiana
[B] Where the swamp moss [C#m] grows
On the back of your hand
Papa set out [E] from our one room [B] shack
Said he went fishing [C#m] but he never came back
And Mama said, son, [E] don't you ever go [B] out
To Lero Swamp [C#m] when the sun goes down
A creature down there [E] called the Parlangwa
[B] And you've got your brother, [C#m] now he's got your pa
The [B] Parlangwa's a swamp boogie [C#m] man
Half alligator and [A] the other half man
[G#m] Son, don't go when [A] you hear the call
Of [C#m] a swamp water booger, [G#m] the [C#m] Parlangwa
I [B] [C#m]
told my mama, [E] gotta make things right
[B] Goin' huntin' down in Lero [C#m] Swamp tonight
The stories that the old [E] men told to me
You [B] gotta stick it with [C#m] a stick from a sweet gum tree
A whipperwhale cried [E] and I prayed to God
[B] Then I headed for the swamp in [C#m] a cold gray fog
Hours passed, it [E] was drizzling rain
When [G#m] I realized that [C#m] I'd lost my way
[E] The Parlangwa's [B] a swamp boogie [C#m] man
Half [A] alligator and the other half man
[G#m] Son, don't go when you [A] hear the [C#m] call
Of a swamp water booger, the Parlangwa
[B]
[C#m] A [B] [C#m]
chill and a fear [E] inside of me
[B] As I whittled off a stick [C#m] from a sweet gum tree
Spanish moss [E] hangin' all around
[B] Stoppin' to listen [C#m] to every sound
[G#m] I stumbled and fell, [A] tangled up in [E] vines
Fear and panic [C#m] shootin' through my mind
[G#m] Tried to rise and [A] then I heard it scream
The Parlangwa's standin' over [C#m]
[B] [C#m]
[B] [C#m] me
Down on the [E] bayous of Louisiana
[G#m] Where the swamp moss [C#m] grows on the back of your [A]
hand
[C#m] Mama lives alone in a one-room shack
Her boy went huntin' but he never came back
[E] And the Parlangwa's [B] a swamp boogie man
[C#m] He's half alligator and [A] the other half man
[G#m] Son, don't go when [A] you hear the call
[C#m] Of a swamp water booger, [G#m] the [C#m] Parlangwa
[B] [C#m] Parlangwa
[G#m] [C#m] [G#m] [C#m]
