Tony Joe White – Polk Salad Annie chords

 I dont know how Tony did it but this is how my Daddy played it when we traveled 
on the road with the band.



                     E                     Down in Louisiana
             E            Where the alligators grow so mean
           E          Lived a girl that I swear to the world
              E             Made the alligators look tame


                       NC         A A7                      Polk salad Annie
                                     E                   Gators got your granny
                     G                  A                Everybody said it was a shame
             G                       A           E          For the mama was working on the chain-gang
                   E                  What a mean, vicious woman


                  E                 Everyday before suppertime
                E                         E7               She'd go down by the truck patch
               E              And pick her a mess of Polk salad
                 E             And carry it home in a tote sack


                     nc           A                    Polk salad Annie
                                   E                  Gators got you granny
                   G                  A              Everybody said it was a shame
           G                       A             E'       Cause the mama was working on the chain-gang
      E    Whoo, how wretched, dispiteful, straight-razor totin' woman,



                E                         E7              Sock a little Polk salad to him
               E              Yeah, you know what, yeah, yeah


            E            Her daddy was a lazy and a no-count
                  E                 Claimed he had a bad back
                E               All her brothers were fit for
          E         Was stealing watermelons out of my truck
