Hank Williams Jr Amos Moses Lyrics

Amos Moses Lyrics

Spoken: Here come Amos 



Now Amos Moses was a Cajun 

He lived
by himself in the swamp 

He hunted alligator for a living 

He just
knock them in the head with a stump 



Louisiana law gonna get ya
Amos 

It ain't legal huntin alligator 

Down in the swamp now 

Well everyone blamed his old man 

For making him mean as a snake 

When Amos Moses was a boy 

His Daddy would use him for alligator bait




Time for ??? and chokin in the swamp 

Alligator babe in a
Louisiana bayou 

About 45 minutes southeast of Tibado Louisiana 

Lived a man named Doc Mill Sap 

And his pretty white Hannah 

They raised up a son who could 

Eat his weight in groceries 

They named him after a man of cloth 

Called him Amos Moses 



Now the folks around South Louisiana 

Thought Amos was a hell of a man


He could trap the biggest meanest alligator 

And just use one hand


Thats all he got left 

Cause the alligator bit it 

Left on
gone, clean up to the elbow 



Well the sheriff got wind that Amos


Was in the swamp hutnin alligator skin 

So he snuck in the swamp


Tried to get the boy 

And he never came out again 



Well I wonder where the 

Louisiana sheriff went too? 

You can
sure get lost in the Louisiana bayou 

About 45 minutes southeast of
Tibado Louisiana 

Lived a man named Doc Mill Sap 

And his pretty
white Hannah 

They raised up a son who could 

Eat his weight in
groceries 

They named him after a man of cloth 

Called him Amos
Moses 



Sit down on em Amos 



About 45 minutes
southeast of Tibado Louisiana 

Lived a man named Doc Mill Sap 

And
his pretty white Hannah 

They raised up a son who could 

Eat his
weight in grocerie
