Polk Salad Annie - Elvis Presley[00:00:01]
Some of you all never been down South too much[00:00:21]
I' gonna tell you a little story[00:00:27]
So you'll understand where I'm talking about[00:00:28]
Down there we have a plant[00:00:29]
That grows out in the woods and the fields[00:00:32]
And it looks something like a turnip green[00:00:35]
Everybody calls it Polk salad Now that's Polk salad[00:00:38]
Used to know a girl that lived down there and[00:00:50]
She'd go out in the evenings to pick a mess of it [00:00:52]
Carry it home and cook it for supper[00:00:58]
'Cause that's about all they had to eat[00:01:00]
But they did all right[00:01:04]
Down in Louisiana[00:01:06]
Where the alligators grow so mean[00:01:07]
Lived a girl that I swear to the world[00:01:13]
Made the alligators look tame[00:01:16]
Polk salad Annie[00:01:19]
'Gators got your granny[00:01:22]
Everybody said it was a shame[00:01:26]
For the mama was working[00:01:29]
On the chain-gang[00:01:31]
What a mean vicious woman[00:01:34]
Everyday before suppertime[00:01:43]
She'd go down by the truck patch[00:01:44]
And pick her a mess of Polk salad[00:01:49]
And carry it home in a tote sack[00:01:53]
Polk salad Annie[00:01:56]
'Gators got you granny[00:01:59]
Everybody said it was a shame[00:02:03]
'Cause the mama was working[00:02:06]
On the chain-gang[00:02:07]
Whoo how wretched dispiteful[00:02:11]
Straight-razor totin' woman[00:02:14]
Lord have mercy [00:02:17]
Sock a little Polk salad to him[00:02:22]
Yeah you know what yeah yeah[00:02:25]
But daddy was a lazy and a no-count[00:02:42]
Claimed he had a bad back[00:02:46]
All her brothers were fit for[00:02:49]
Was stealing watermelons out of my truck[00:02:52]
For once Polk salad Annie[00:02:55]
'Gators got your granny[00:02:56]
Everybody said it was a shame[00:03:02]
For the mama was working[00:03:05]
On the chain-gang[00:03:07]
Sock a little Polk salad to him[00:03:15]
You know what meets a meal mention[00:03:17]
You sock a little[00:03:22]
Hey hey hey yeah yeah[00:03:24]
Chic a bon chic a bon[00:03:37]
Chic a bon bon bon bon[00:03:51]
Chic a bon chic a bon[00:03:52]
Chic a bon bon bon bon[00:03:53]
Sock a little Polk salad to him[00:03:55]
You know what meets a meal mention[00:03:56]
Sock a little Polk salad to him[00:03:57]
You know what meets a meal mention[00:04:01]
