E
Down in Louisiana, where the alligators grow so mean.

There lived a girl, that I swear to the world, 

made the alligators look tame.

CHORUS:
           A                 E
Polk salad Annie, polk salad Annie.
     G                  A
Everybody said it was a shame..
          G                             A
cause her Mama was working on the chain-gang.
E
A mean, vicious woman.

#2.
E
Everyday 'fore supper time, she'd go down by the truck patch.

And pick her a mess o' Polk salad, and carry it home 

in a tote-sack.
