Roosevelt and Ira Lee (Night of the Mossacin) - Tony Joe White[00:00:00]

This is about two cats[00:00:00]

They're sittin' down by a river in the swamps[00:00:01]

They're sittin' down on the logs[00:00:06]

One of them is kind of a big fellow[00:00:08]

And the other one is a little bit smaller[00:00:09]

And he's got a long billed cap[00:00:11]

And they're sittin' there ponderin'[00:00:14]

On what they're gonna do for the night[00:00:15]

And anything the big guy decides[00:00:17]

On the little guy's for[00:00:19]

'Cause he digs him he's cool[00:00:21]

So it's called Roosevelt and Ira Lee[00:00:23]

The river was dark and muddy[00:00:34]

And the moon was on the rise[00:00:37]

And all of the creatures in the swampland[00:00:41]

Had woke up to feed for the night[00:00:45]

Roosevelt and Ira Lee huh were sittin' there on a log[00:00:49]

Ira Lee turned to Roosevelt and said[00:00:56]

I'd sure like to have a mess of bull frog[00:01:00]

He said yeah yeah lawd sure would taste good[00:01:03]

So they slipped on their rubber boots[00:01:19]

And walked down to the water's edge[00:01:23]

And right away they knew[00:01:26]

That the night would be a bummer[00:01:28]

'Cause Ira Lee stepped[00:01:30]

On a water mossacin[00:01:31]

He said uh uh lawd[00:01:33]

Somebody help me[00:01:41]

Ira Lee turned to Roosevelt[00:02:09]

When he quit his screamin' and kickin'[00:02:12]

And he said let's forget about the bullfrog legs[00:02:15]

And go out and steal us some chickens[00:02:19]

And Ol' Roosevelt said like this now[00:02:22]

Yeah yeah ooh it sure would taste good[00:02:24]

Yes it would I love a chicken[00:02:32]

Oh the river was dark and muddy yeah[00:02:38]
