Alligator Eating Dog Songtext
von Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown

Let me tell you ′bout a dog I've got
He ain′t no Fido and he ain't no Spot
He's a blue gummed catahoula alligator eatin′ dog.

Ears like radar, eyes like fire
Feet like a bear, hair like wire
He′s a blue gummed catahoula alligator eatin' dog.

Now ladies and gentlemen, see one of these dogs
Don′t make the mistake about going up to him and pettin' him over here talkin′ about nice little dog that my daddy bought me one when I was a little girl
You know what's gonna happen
Yow! (growl!)

He′s so mean and that's no lie
The cottonmouth bite him and the cottonmouth died
He's a blue gummed catahoula alligator eatin′ dog.

Now if you ever down in Louisiana
For God′s sakes don't ever put your hand on the
Blue gummed catahoula alligator eatin′ dog.


Now if one of you beer drinkers ever see one of these dogsn don't make the mistake about trying to pet him
What you do, you walk up behind him
Walk up some, pull up his ear and you blow... pfooof--woof woof!

(Gatemouth does his thing)

(Piano solo)

I don′t care what kind of beer you love
Put your hand on that dog you're gonna draw back a nub
He′s a blue gummed catahoula alligator eatin' dog.

He treats the swamp like it wasn't there
Walk on water, fly through the air

Now ladies I would have brought him with me tonight
But you know they wouldn′t let the fool on the plane
He kept bitin′ out of the cages and swallowin' all the chains.

So I left him home with my granny
She′s the only one that whoop the fanny of the
Blue gummed catahoula alligator eatin' dog
Alligator eatin′ dog
Alligator eatin' dog

Look out! Here he comes! (woof, woof!)
Here he comes! Look out! (woof, woof!)
