Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I was feeling loose like a mongoose
Lord, and the joint was really rocking
Them good ol' boys down on the floor
And the ladies were dancing in their stockings
[Chorus]
Alligator
They're crawling all around
Alligator
Swampers get on down
[Verse 2]
Saturday night, feeling right
Ready for some fun and games
Went down to the swamps to a honky tonk
And when I stepped inside the door
I knew right away, it's my kind of place
Everybody was crawling on the floor
[Bridge]
Alligator
Alligator
[Verse 3]
Wanted to dance when I got the chance
But I waited for the band to play a slow one
Then this sexy thing came up to me
She was long and lean like a panther
She said, "Hey baby, can you gator?"
"Is a cottonmouth mean?" Was my answer
[Chorus]
Alligator
They're doing it in the swamp
Alligator
Chomp, chomp, chomp
Alligator
Can you gator?
