Lyrics
(American folk song)
Refrain
Now go on old gator, dog-gone your soul.
Now go on old gator, got to make it to your muddy hole.
1.God made a gator, God made a whale.
God made a gator, knots all over his tail. Refrain
2.God made a gator, God made a fly.
God put the bands all over that gator’s eye. Refrain
