Elvis Presley - Polk Salad Annie - Elvis Live Version Lyrics

Lyrics Polk Salad Annie - Elvis Live Version - Elvis Presley



Some of you all never been down south too much
Some of you all never down south too...
I' gonna tell you a little story, so you'll understand where 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
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, 'cause that's about all they had to eat
But they did all right
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-a-working on the chain-gang
A mean, 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
How wretched, spiteful, straight-razor totin' woman
Lord have mercy
Sock a little Polk salad to him
But daddy was a lazy and no-count
Claimed he had a bad back
All her brothers were fit for
Was stealing watermelons out of my truck
For once Polk salad Annie
'Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
For the mama was-a-working on the chain-gang
You sock a little Polk salad to him
You know what meets a meal...
You sock a little
(Chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon)
(Chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon)
Sock a little Polk salad to him (chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon)
You know what meets a meal mention (chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon)
Sock a little Polk salad to him (chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon)
You know what meets a meal... (chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon)
Chinc, chinc, chinc, chin (chic a bon, chic a bon)
Chinc, chinc, chinc, chin, ling, ling ling (chic a bon bon bon bon)
Chinc, chinc, chinc, chin (chic a bon, chic a bon)
Chinc, chinc, chinc, chin (chic a bon bon bon bon)
Chinc, chinc, chinc, chin (chic a bon, chic a bon)
Chinc, chinc, chinc, chin (chic a bon bon bon bon)
Chinc, chinc, chinc, chin (Chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon)
(Chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon)
(Chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon)
(Chic a bon, chic a bon, chic a bon bon bon bon)
(Chic a bon, chic a bon)
