Polk Salad Annie Text
[Intro]
What are you lookin' at back there?
Some of y'all never been down south too much
I'm gonna tell you a little story so's you'll understand what I'm talkin' about
Down there, we have a plant that grows out in the woods and the fields
And it looks somethin' like a turnip green
And everybody calls it polk salad
Now that's polk salad, ho
Anyway, I used to know a girl who lived down there
She'd go out in the evenings and pick her a mess of it
Carry it home and cook it for supper
'Cause that's about all they had to eat
But they did alright
[Verse 1]
Down in Louisiana
Where the alligators grow so mean
Lived a girl that I swear to the world
Made the alligators look tame
[Chorus]
Polk Salad Annie
Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
'Cause her mama was a-workin' on the chain gang
[Post-Chorus]
A mean, vicious
Straight-razor-totin' woman
Lord, have mercy
[Verse 2]
Every day before suppertime
She'd go down by the truck patch
And pick her a mess of polk salad
And carry it home in a tow sack
[Chorus]
Polk Salad Annie
Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
'Cause her mama was a-workin' on the chain gang
[Bridge]
Sock a little polk salad (Oh)
[Verse 3]
Her daddy was a lazy no-count
Claimed he had a bad back
All her brothers were fit for
Was stealin' watermelons out of my truck patch
[Chorus]
Polk Salad Annie
Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
'Cause her mama was a-workin' on the chain gang
[Interlude]
Sock a little polk salad to me
You know I need a
Sock a little
[Outro]
Yeah
You're right, you're right
Sock a little polk salad to me
You know I need a real mess of it
Sock a little
Know I need a real mess of it
Sock a little, sock a
[Spoken Outro]
Thank you
Thank you very much
