Elvis Presley – Polk Salad Annie (Film Mix) Lyrics

Artist: Elvis Presley
Song: Polk Salad Annie (Film Mix)

Some of y’all never been down south too much
I’m going to tell you a little story
So you’ll understand what I’m talking about
Down there we have a plant

That grows out in the woods and the fields
And it looks something like a turnip green
Everybody calls it polk salad
Now that’s 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
Because that’s about all they had to eat

But they did all right
Down in louisiana
Where the alligators grow 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

‘Cause her mama was a-working on the chain-gang
A mean vicious woman
Every day before suppertime
She’d go down by the truck patch

And pick her a mess of polk salad
And carry it home in a tow sack
Polk salad annie
Gators got your granny

Everybody said it was a shame
‘Cause her mama was a-working on the chain-gang
Sock a little
Her daddy was lazy and a no-count

Claimed he had a bad back
All her brothers were fit for
Was stealing watermelons out of my truck patch
Polk salad annie

Gators got your granny
Everybody said it was a shame
‘Cause her mama was a-working on the chain-gang
Sock a little polk salad to me

You know a need
You sock a little
Sock a little polk salad to me
You know I need a real mess of it

Sock a little
You know I need a real mess of it
Sock a little
Sock

Sock
