Lyrics Polk Salad Annie (live 1970)

Some of y'all never been down South too much
Some of y'all never been down South too much
I'm gonna tell you a little story so you'll understand what I'm talking about
Down there we have a plant that grows out in the woods and the fields
And it looks something like a turnip green everybody calls it Polk salad
Now that's Polk salad
Lord have mercy used to know a girl that lived down there and she'd go out in the evenings to
Pick a mess of it carry it home and cook it for supper
'Cos that's about all they had to eat but they did all right
Down in Louisiana where the alligators grow so mean
Lived a girl that
I swear to the world made the alligators look tame
Polk salad Annie 'gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
For the mama was working on the chain-gang
A mean vicious woman, oh
Everyday before suppertime she'd go down by the truck patch
And pick her a mess of Polk salad and carry it home in a tote sack
Polk salad Annie 'gators got you granny
Ooh ooh ooh
Everybody said it was a shame
Because the mama was working on the chain-gang
How wretched, dispiteful straight-razor totin' woman
Lord have mercy, ooh
Sock a little Polk salad to him you know what
But daddy was a lazy and a no-count claimed he had a bad back
All her brothers were fit for was stealing watermelons out of my truck
For once Polk salad Annie 'gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
Because mama was working on the chain-gang
Oh
Sock a little Polk salad to him you know what means a meal mention sock a little
Hey
Sock a little Polk salad to him you know what means a meal mention
Sock a little Polk salad you know what means a meal
Chin chin chin chin
Chin chin chin chin ling ling ling
Chin chin chin chin
Chin chin chin chin
Chin chin chin chin
Chin chin chin chin
Chin chin chin chin ling ling chin
Hey hey
Come on
Come on
