Polk Salad Annie (August 12, Midnight Show) Songtext
von Elvis Presley

Down in Louisiana
Where the alligators grew so mean
Lived a girl, that I swear to the world
Made the alligators look tame

Polk salad, Annie
′Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
For the Mama was a working on the Chain Gang
What a mean, straight-razor totin' woman
Lord have mercy

Everyday before supper time
She′d go down by the truck patch
And pick her a mess of Polk salad
And carry it home in a tote sack

Polk salad, Annie
'Gators got you granny
Everybody said it was a shame
For the Mama was a working on the Chain Gang


But daddy was a lazy and a no count
Claimed he had a bad back
All her brothers were fit for
Stealing watermelons out of my truck

For once Polk salad, Annie
'Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
For the Mama was a working on the Chain Gang

Sock a little Polk salad to him
You know what meets a meal mention
Chic a bon, chic a bon
Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon
Chic a bon, chic a bon
Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon


Sock a little Polk salad to him
Chic a bon, chic a bon
Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon
Chic a bon, chic a bon
Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon
Chic a bon, chic a bon
Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon
Chic a bon, chic a bon
Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon
Chic a bon, chic a bon
Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon

(Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon) Sock a little Polk salad to him
(Chic a bon, chic a bon) You know what meets a meal mention
(Chic a bon, chic a bon) Sock a little
(Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon)
(Chic a bon, chic a bon)
(Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon) Sock a little, suck a
(Chic a bon, chic a bon)
(Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon)
(Chic a bon, chic a bon)
(Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon)
(Chic a bon, chic a bon)
(Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon)
(Chic a bon, chic a bon)
(Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon)
(Chic a bon, chic a bon)
(Chic a bon, bon, bon, bon)
