Down by the bayou where the water runs deep,
Lives an alligator with a jazzy kind of creep.
He's got a slick green suit and a toothy smile,
When he hits the floor, he's got that reptile style!
He don't need no shoes, he's got claws for the groove,
With his tail on the beat, everybody's gotta move.
From the frogs on the lily to the birds in the trees,
They all get down when he shakes those knees!
Oh, it's the alligator swing,
When he moves, you gotta sing.
With a snap, clap, tail tap, the rhythm's alive,
In the swamp tonight, he's got the whole crowd in a jive.
Yeah, it's the alligator swing,
Hear the bayou start to ring.
From the croak of the frogs to the wind through the pines,
Everybody's swayin' in those jazzy lines.
He slinks through the water with a beat in his chest,
In the moonlight glow, he's lookin' his best.
His scales are shining, his rhythm's real tight,
He's the king of the swamp when the groove takes flight.
The turtles tap toes, the herons flap wings,
When the gator hits the beat, oh, the swamp really sings.
With a twist and a twirl, he's the croc of the show,
Everybody knows when it's time to go low!
Oh, it's the alligator swing,
When he moves, you gotta sing.
With a snap, clap, tail tap, the rhythm's alive,
In the swamp tonight, he's got the whole crowd in a jive.
Yeah, it's the alligator swing,
Hear the bayou start to ring.
From the croak of the frogs to the wind through the pines,
Everybody's swayin' in those jazzy lines.
Oh, it's the alligator swing,
When he moves, you gotta sing.
With a snap, clap, tail tap, the rhythm's alive,
In the swamp tonight, he's got the whole crowd in a jive.
Yeah, it's the alligator swing,
Hear the bayou start to ring.
From the croak of the frogs to the wind through the pines,
Everybody's swayin' in those jazzy lines.
Now, don't be shy, when the gator's on the prowl,
He's just here to groove with a little bayou howl.
So slide to the left, and shimmy to the right,
Let that alligator take you through the night!
Yeah, it's the alligator swing,
When he moves, you gotta sing.
With a snap, clap, tail tap, the rhythm's alive,
In the swamp tonight, he's got the whole crowd in a jive.
Yeah, it's the alligator swing,
Hear the bayou start to ring.
From the croak of the frogs to the wind through the pines,
Everybody's swayin' in those jazzy lines.
Oh, the alligator swing, yeah, the alligator swing,
Down in the swamp, hear that rhythm ring!
