[00:00:07] Well ol' catahoula brown lived back in the swamp

[00:00:10] With his dogs and a bunch of sons

[00:00:12] One teenage daughter her name was sally sue

[00:00:15] She was as pretty as a newborn fawn

[00:00:18] And he didn't like sinners and he didn't like saints

[00:00:20] And he didn't like anything

[00:00:23] But as much as he disliked everybody else

[00:00:26] He just hated ol' silas green

[00:00:28] Sally sue come in on a saturday evening

[00:00:31] As the sun was going down

[00:00:32] She said papa if it's alright with you

[00:00:36] Well I think I'm gonna go to town

[00:00:39] He said daughter you get on back in the house

[00:00:42] 'Cause you ain't going no place

[00:00:44] 'Til you get them ribbons out of your hair

[00:00:46] And wash the makeup off of your face

[00:00:49] She said papa don't you be so hard on me

[00:00:52] 'Cause I just got a date

[00:00:54] With this boy I met in sunday school

[00:00:57] And we ain't gonna be out late

[00:00:59] And then she walked on up to the rural route

[00:01:02] And she caught herself a ride

[00:01:04] But it wasn't no boy from sunday school

[00:01:07] That was sittin' on the other side

[00:01:10] It was silas green's youngest son bobby joe

[00:01:13] Sittin' under that steering wheel

[00:01:15] Alligator alligator swimming in the stream

[00:01:21] Alligator alligator what makes you so mean

[00:01:26] Alligator alligator wonder where you been

[00:01:30] And did you swallow ol' catahoula brown

[00:01:34] I ain't never seen him again

[00:01:44] Catahoula got up on sunday morning

[00:01:46] Made some coffee and had him a cup

[00:01:49] Then he walked on out to the back of the house

[00:01:52] To get his pretty daughter up

[00:01:54] He went running in the room where the boys all slept

[00:01:57] Hollered get up somethin' ain't right

[00:02:00] And I'm worried to death 'cause your darling little sister

[00:02:02] Didn't even come home last night

[00:02:05] Johnny said papa don't be mad at me

[00:02:08] I sure hate to tell you this

[00:02:10] But I seen her in the town with bobby joe green

[00:02:13] And I even seen her give him a kiss

[00:02:15] And I tried to get her to come on back

[00:02:18] But she told me to leave her alone

[00:02:20] She said they were getting married before the sun come up

[00:02:24] And she wasn't never coming home

[00:02:27] Catahoula grabbed the boy by the nape of his neck

[00:02:29] And slapped him upside the head

[00:02:31] He said before I see her married to that trash

[00:02:34] I'd rather see the little girl dead

[00:02:37] And then he whistled up his dogs and he grabbed his gun

[00:02:39] And he was full of evil and fight

[00:02:42] He went a runnin' 'cross the woods hollering

[00:02:44] Silas green and his bunch are gonna die tonight

[00:02:47] Then a day went by and he didn't come back

[00:02:50] And another went by then a week

[00:02:52] And when the boys went looking all they found was his shotgun

[00:02:55] Laying at the bottom of the creek

[00:02:58] And then they found his boots and they found his cap

[00:03:00] But they couldn't find anything else

[00:03:03] Except a big bad alligator sitting on a log

[00:03:06] Looking mighty proud of himself

[00:03:09] It don't pay to hate somebody so bad you go

[00:03:12] Stomping around in gator country

[00:03:14] Alligator alligator swimming in the stream

[00:03:19] Alligator alligator what makes you so mean

[00:03:24] Alligator alligator wonder where you been

[00:03:29] Well did you swallow ol' catahoula brown

[00:03:36] I ain't never seen him again
