Polk Salad Annie (Dinner Show) Songtext
von Elvis Presley

Down in Louisiana
Where the alligators grow so mean
Lived a girl that I swear to the world
Made the alligators look tame

Polk salad Annie
′Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
For the mama was working on the chain-gang
What a mean, straight-razor totin', vicious woman

Everyday before suppertime
She′d go down by the truck patch
And pick her a mess of Polk salad
And carry it home in a tote sack

Polk salad Annie
'Gators got you granny
Everybody said it was a shame
'Cause the mama was working on the chain-gang
Whoo


Sock a little
No one need

Her daddy was a 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

For once Polk salad Annie
′Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
For the mama was working on the chain-gang


Sock a little (Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom)
(Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom)

(Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom)
(Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom)
(Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom)
(Chick-a-boom)

Sock a little Polk salad to me (Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom)
You know I need a meal miss (Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom)
Sock a little (Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom)
(Chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom, chick-a-boom-boom-boom)
