[Intro]
What are you lookin' at back there?
Some of y'all never been down south too much
I'm gonna tell you a little story so's you'll understand what I'm talkin' about
Down there, we have a plant that grows out in the woods and the fields
And it looks somethin' like a turnip green
And everybody calls it polk salad
Now that's polk salad, ho
Anyway, I used to know a girl who lived down there
She'd go out in the evenings and pick her a mess of it
Carry it home and cook it for supper
'Cause that's about all they had to eat
But they did alright
[Verse 1]
Down in Louisiana
Where the alligators grow so mean
Lived a girl that I swear to the world
Made the alligators look tame
[Chorus]
Polk Salad Annie
Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
'Cause her mama was a-workin' on the chain gang
What are you lookin' at back there?
Some of y'all never been down south too much
I'm gonna tell you a little story so's you'll understand what I'm talkin' about
Down there, we have a plant that grows out in the woods and the fields
And it looks somethin' like a turnip green
And everybody calls it polk salad
Now that's polk salad, ho
Anyway, I used to know a girl who lived down there
She'd go out in the evenings and pick her a mess of it
Carry it home and cook it for supper
'Cause that's about all they had to eat
