_ Amos [G] smoked a smoked a cajun, _ lived by himself in the swamp. _
_ Hunting alligators for a living, _ _ knocking on their head with a stone.
[G] _ _ [Am] Louisiana knows gonna get ya, Amos. _ _ _ _ _
It ain't legal hunting alligators down in [A] the swamp, [A] boy.
_ [Am] _ _ _
_ _ Now everybody blamed his old man for raising him mean and a snag.
_ When Amos smoked, it was a boy, his daddy would use him as alligator bait.
[G] _ [A] I rode [Am] around his way, so one day in the swamp, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ alligator baits on the Louisiana bayou. _ _ _ _ _
Just [E] about 45 minutes [D] southeast of Tepidora, [A] Louisiana, _ _ _ _ there [E] lived a man called Dr.
[D] Bill Sands and his pretty [A] wife. _ _ _ _
_ _ [E] They raised up a son [C] that could eat up his bread [D] and groceries. _ _
_ _ _ [Am] Named him after a man of the cloth, they called him Amos, no Santa. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Now folks in South Louisiana [E] _ said Amos was a hell of a man.
He [Am] could trap a big, meanest alligator, he only had to use one hand.
[G] _ [Am] That's all he got left of the alligator victim. _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Left arm, gun feet up to the elbow. _ _ _ _
