Grateful Dead - Alligator lyrics



Alligator
---------

Sleepy alligator in the noonday sun
lying by the river just like he usually done

Call for his whiskey,
he can call for his tea,
call all he want to, but he can't call on me.

Oh no! well, I been there before,
and I'm not coming back around here no more.

Creepy alligator coming all around the bin,
talkin' about the times when we was mutual friends
I take my memory and I take good care of you (?), yes I will.

Woh oh, waiting for a rainy day
Woh oh, waiting for a rainy day
I think you're running some old kind of trick

Oh no! well, I been there before,
and I'm not coming back around here no more.

Riding down the river in an old canoe
a bunch of bottles and old tennis shoes
out of the river, all ugly and green
the biggest old alligator that I've ever seen!

Teeth big and pointy, and his eyes were bugging out
Contract the union, put the ??? to ???
Screaming and yelling, he was liking his chops
He never run, he just stumbles and hops

Just out of prison on six dollars bail
Mumbles and bitches and a wagging his tail

Alligator running round my door
Alligator running round my door
Alligator running round my door
Alligator's creeping round and crawling round my cabin floor,
He'll be coming round to bother me some more
