Two a.m. driving all night
Down a long dark Delta road
No one around for miles
I need to stop for a while
I still got a long way to go
And I see a sign saying spend some time
In Alligator Mississippi
Just over the hill that's where I'll get my fill
In Alligator Mississippi
I stop at the store
A hundred folks or more
Gathered in the parking lot
They got guns and knives
And evil in their eyes
I feel my knees start to knock
It's the scariest scene, I mean
It's nothing I've ever seen before
Feel like fish out of water
Lamb to the slaughter
Alligator bait for sure
Need to get gas and gone
Cause I don't belong
In Alligator Mississippi
Hope you live a fire enough to spare some for me
In Alligator Mississippi
It feels good, no lie
To say goodbye
Alligator Mississippi
Alligator Mississippi
Alligator Mississippi
