Polk Salad Annie Lyrics - Stallion Battalion - The Bosshoss

If some of ya'll never been down South too much 

I'm gonna tell you a little bit about this, so that 

you'll understand what I'm talking about 

Down there we have a plant that grows out 

in the woods and the fields, looks something'like 

a turnip green. 

Everybody calls it Polk salad. Polk salad. 

Used to know a girl that lived down there and 

she'd go out in the evenings and pick a mess of it 

Carry it home and cook it for supper, 'cause that's 

about all they hat to eat, but they did all right. 

Down in Louisiana, 

where the alligators grow so mean 

There lived a girl that I sear to the world 

Made the alligators look tame

Polk salad Annie. Polk salad Annie 

Everybody said it was a shame 

Cause her mama was working on the chain-gang 

(a mean, vicious woman) 

Everyday 'fore supper time 

She'd go down by the truck patch 

And pick her a mess o'Polk salad 

And carry it home in a tote sack 

ref: 

Polk salad Annie 'Gators got you granny 

Everybody said it was a shame 

'Cause her mama was working' on the chain-gang 

(a wretched, spiteful, straight-razor totin' 

woman, Lord have mercy. Pick a mess of it)

Her daddy was lazy and no count 

Claimed he had a bad black 

All her brothers were fit for was stealin' 

watermelons out of my truck patch
