Well I was born on a Friday in the Florida sun
By the Kiss Me River and before I was one
My momma alligator said to me with a smile,
"Let me show you how to walk in a particular style"
"You take a little bit of country and some slow rock 'n roll"
"What you got going is the Alligator Stroll"
Okay
I hold my head up high
I keep my feet on the ground
I never hurry, never worry as I'm strollin around
I can keep a certain tempo that is lazy and sweet
And I don't need shoes cause I got alligator feet
Take a little bit of country and some slow rock 'n roll
And what you got going is the Alligator Stroll
I don't want to fight
I don't want to bite
I use my seventy-five teeth for a smile so bright
You can recognize me by my rose-colored shades
As I make my strollin way through the Everglades
I'm strollin
Still strollin
Yeah
Oh, oh, oh, bless my soul
What we got going is the Alligator Stroll
Left, right
Left, right
I got a letter from my cousins in the Great Dismal Swamp
They said they want to teach me their Alligator Stomp
So I'm strollin that direction in the way that I do
I hope to reach the Carolinas by the time I'm eighty-two
If you like a little country and some slow rock 'n roll
You can follow right behind me with the Alligator Stroll
Put on your shades
Looks good
Follow me
We're going left, right
Left, right
Give a Hollywood smile with those teeth so white
Now stroll to the left
Back, forth
Now we're strollin to the right
Step South, step North
Now we're strollin straight ahead in an alligator roll
And every now and then we do a little dosie-do
Hey rock, roll
Rock, roll
All the way to Carolina with the Alligator
I'm in no hurry
Stroll
See you later
Alligator
