Down in Hogan's Alley lives a Miss Nancy Ann
Fussin and a-fightin with her man
Well I thought I heard Miss Nancy say
"Why do ya treat your gal that way?"

When walkin down the alley the other night
Nancy and her man just had a fight
Well he beat Miss Nancy across the head
When she rose to her feat she said:

You low down alligator, watch me sooner or later
Gonna catch you with your britches down
You throw me round me and beat me, tease me and mistreat me
Still I'm gonna hang around

Take all my money, black out the both of my eyes
Give it all to another woman, come home and tell me lies
You low down alligator watch me sooner or later
Gonna catch you with your britches down

Take all my money, black out the both of my eyes
Give it all to another woman, come home and tell me lies
You low down alligator watch me sooner or later
Gonna catch you with your britches down
I mean, catch you with your britches down
