Mosquitoes buzzin' ‘round my head Spanish moss for my bed I very seldom see dry land 'Cause I'm an alligator man. I hunt the 'gators all night long I sell their hides and then I'm gone I take the bill to Bayou Sam Who loves that tall 'gator man. Let's go! This bayou country is my home The friendliest lake I've ever roamed
'Cause I'm the leader of the clan Known as that tall 'gator man. And when I bring those hides to town All the people gather 'round They just want to shake the hand Of that tall 'gator man. Some people search this world for fame But hunting 'gators is my game And by the scars upon my hand So I'm an alligator man. Let's go!
