Hank Williams Jr - Amos Moses guitar chord

Amos Moses

By Hank Williams Jr

Spoken Here come Amos.

G

Now Amos Moses was a Cajun

A C

He lived by himself in the swamp

C

He hunted alligators for a livin’

C G

He just knock ‘em in the head with a stomp

G

Louisiana law gonna getcha Amos

G D G

It ain’t legal huntin’ alligator down in the swamp now

Well everyone blamed his ol’ man

For makin’ him mean as a snake

When Amos Moses was a boy, his daddy

Would use him for alligator bait

Tie a rope around his neck and choke him in the swamp

Yeah, alligator bait in the Louisiana Bayou.

Bridge:

D C G

About 45 minutes southeast of Thibodaux Louisiana

D C G

Live a man named Doc Milsap and pretty wife Hanna

D C

They raised up a son who could eat his weight in grocerieeees

Spoken: Named him after a man of the cloth, called him Amos Moses

Now the folks around south Louisiana

Said Amos was a helluva man

He could trap the biggest, meanest alligator

And just use one hand

That’s all he got left ‘cause the alligator bit it hahaha

Left arm gone clean up the elbow

Well the sheriff got wind that Amos

Was in the swamp trappin’ alligator skin

So he snuck in the swamp. Gonna get the boy,

But he never come out again

Well, wonder where the Louisiana sheriff went to

Now you can sure get lost in the Louisiana bayou

Bridge

Spoken: Sit down on ‘em Amos

Bridge

Hahahaha

Spoken: His name is Amos Moses

Amos Amos Amos Moses

Hahahaha

Spoken: His name is Amos Moses
