(Intro riff, Bass and Guitar1)
Some of you all never been down South too much...
I' gonna tell you a little story, so you'll understand where 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.
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, 'cause that's about all they had to eat,
But they did all right.
E
Down in Louisiana
E
Where the alligators grow so mean
E
Lived a girl that I swear to the world
E
Made the alligators look tame
[NC] A
Polk salad Annie
E
'Gators got your granny
G A
Everybody said it was a shame
G A E
For the mama was working on the chain-gang
E
What a mean, vicious woman
E
Everyday before suppertime
E
She'd go down by the truck patch
E
And pick her a mess of Polk salad
E
And carry it home in a tote sack
[nc] A
Polk salad Annie
E
'Gators got you granny
G A
Everybody said it was a shame
G A E
'Cause the mama was working on the chain-gang
E
Whoo, how wretched, dispiteful, straight-razor totin' woman,
E
Lord have mercy.
E
Sock a little Polk salad to him
E
Yeah, you know what, yeah, yeah
E
But daddy was a lazy and a no-count
E
Claimed he had a bad back
E
All her brothers were fit for
E
Was stealing watermelons out of my truck
[nc] A
For once Polk salad Annie
E
'Gators got your granny
G A
Everybody said it was a shame
G A E
For the mama was working on the chain-gang
E
Sock a little Polk salad to him
E
You know what meets a meal mention
E
You sock a little
E
Hey, hey, hey, yeah, yeah
(Intro riff Bass and Guitar 1)
E
Chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon
E
Chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon
E
Sock a little Polk salad to him
E
You know what meets a meal mention
E
Sock a little Polk salad to him
E
You know what meets a meal mention
E
Chinc, chinc, chinc, chin, ling, ling ling
Enjoy!
