Iowa Alligator Lyrics

Let me get eaten by some alligator monster
I'll pretend I'm a little bullfrog
I don't care about no alligator monster
Four times better than your sister's bulldog

I said hey why don't you send a letter to your baby on her birthday
Hey, why don't you send a letter to your baby on her birthday

I'll go walking in your swamps at night time
Much better than your local highway
I don't mind your swamps at nighttime
I just wonder what your sister might say

She says leave your shoes at the door your hat on porch come my way
Leave your shoes at the door your hat on the porch come my way

Light a match, call me in the morning
I'll be up until about a half past two
Light a match and call me in the morning
Let me know what your sister done do

She done gone left for Illinois went through Indiana on Flag Day
She done gone left for Illinois went through Indiana on her birthday

Fourteen days on the Mississippi River
And I'm all surrounded by corn
Two weeks on your Mississippi river
Really a shame when your heart is torn

I say hey why don't you send a letter to your baby on her birthday
Hey why don't you send a letter to your baby on her birthday
