Daniel Antopolsky - Don't Go Pokin' in the Okefenokee lyrics

Swamp ate up the bad man and set the sweet child free Swamp ate up the bad man and set the sweet child free Swamp ate up the bad man and set the sweet child free Swamp ate up the bad man and set the sweet child free Don't go pokin' in the Okefenokee unless you love your maker There ain't no jokin' in the Okefenokee, with there's more creatures by the acre Oh, the Okefenokee is the king of the swamps and you can't take it for granted When thе sun goes down it's creature town and thе gators are gigantic Now, City Slick had just robbed a bank to make a dope deal down in Florida Along with him was sweet little Kim, he'd kidnapped as a hostage She was young and bright and innocent and Slick's mind was full of garbage He was only thinkin' of himself, wouldn't think of nobody else Let's see how the story goes in the Okefenokee swamp Oh, 'cause swamp at up the bad man and set the sweet child free Swamp at up the bad man and set the sweet child free Now, the State Patrol was in hot pursuit of Slick through Georgia backroads They found his car plum out of gas where the swamp had claimed the railroad Slick forced little Kim to a place not fit for crooks or children Oh, the search party had to wait 'til day, there was nothing left to do but pray 'Cause when you're lost, there ain't no way in the Okefenokee Oh, swamp ate up the bad man and set the sweet child free, yeah Oh, just before noon, around full moon, all hope had been abandoned A helicopter with a filming crew zoomed in on an eagle's landing What they saw was beyond belief in that shaded, mossy cypress Little Kim was fat and fine, the baby eagles they were learning to fly What had happened was beyond the eye of folks that don't know nothing Let me repeat that Oh, just before noon, around full moon, all hope had been abandoned A helicopter with a filming crew zoomed in on eagle's landing Oh, what they saw was beyond belief in that shaded, mossy cypress Little Kim, she was fat and fine, and the baby eagles was learning to fly What had happened was beyond the eye of folks that don't know nothing You gotta have a little faith You can never give up searchin' for that lovely child You can never give up But here's what happened Well, a monster gator had swallowed ol' Slick before he turned a corner Kim rode on that gator's back to the big tree by the water Oh, big bear climbed honey tree with that tiny human daughter And placed that baby in the eagle's nest, all the creatures did their best Thank the Lord that the child was blessed in the Okefenokee We're gonna repeat that one again Well, a monster gator had swallowed Ol' Slick before he turned a corner Kim rode on that gator's back to the big tree by the water Oh, big bear climbed honey tree with that tiny human daughter And placed the baby in the eagle's nest, all the creatures did their best Thank the Lord that the child was blessed in the Okeeeeeeee In the Okefenokee swamp
