[Intro]
…Thank you

Some of y'all never been down South too much
Some y'all never nah South too mu- [Laughs]

I'm going to tell you a little story, so you'll understand what I'm talking about
Down there we have a plant that grows out in the woods and the fields
And it looks something like a turnip green
Everybody calls it polk salad
Now that's polk salad (Lord, have mercy)
Used to know a girl that lived down there and
She'd go out in the evenings and pick a mess of it
Carry it home and cook it for supper, because that's about all they had to eat
But they did all right

[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-working on the chain gang
A mean, vicious woman
[Verse 2]
Every day before suppertime
She'd go down by the truck patch
And pick her a mess of polk salad
And carry it home in a tow sack

[Chorus]
Polk Salad Annie
Gators got your granny, ooh
Everybody said it was a shame
'Cause her mama was a-working on the chain gang
A wretched, spiteful, straight razor-toting woman
Lord, have mercy

[Bridge]
Sock a little polk salad to me
(You know I need a real mess of it)

[Verse 3]
Her daddy was lazy and a no-count
Claimed he had a bad back
All her brothers were fit for
Was stealing watermelons out of my truck patch

[Chorus]
Polk Salad Annie
Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
'Cause her mama was a-working on the chain gang
(Oh!)
[Outro]
Sock a little polk salad to me
You know I need a real mess of it
Sock a little
(Hey, hey, hey, yeah, yeah)
(Chic-a-boom, chic-a-boom, chic-a-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom)
(Chic-a-boom, chic-a-boom, chic-a-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom-boom)
Sock a little polk salad to me
You know I need a real mess of it
Sock a little polk salad..
You know I need a real -
Ching, ching, a-ching, ching
Ching, ching, a-ching, ching, a-ling, a-ling, a-ling
