LYRICS
Yella alligator just swimmin through the gumbo
Gotta keep his head down looking for the jumbo (jet)
Gotta funny feeling got the blues on Monday
Gotta swim back for the storm on Sunday
Or we're all gonna get wet
Everybody livin in the city but there livin a lie
Playin all my music in the bayou where I always stay high
Fever took my mama she was dancin with the boombox
Passed right out and she fell into the boondocks
It made a mighty sound
Gonna have a party in the low down swampland
Grillin on some eagle with a no name farm hand
We just messin around
Chorus

Haha exactly!

[@siscoismyhomey]

So killing! Can't wait for this new album, just pre-ordered it!

[@brotherhill]

I love this song. I hope I don't end up hating it. It's one of those songs that's in my head when I wake up in the morning. It never starts at the beginning though we're always at least 20 seconds in. Maybe that's what drives me crazy about the whole situation. I'm really not sure why I wanted to share this but I typed it all out so here you go. Hit up the Juke Joint festival in Clarksdale, MS if you haven't already. Come to Memphis.

[@BOB-Route66Parrots]

Just posted this song live from Coda in Joplin. Had ta do it, too good not to Brother.... Hope to see y'all soon

[@Eddie9V]

Can’t wait to watch it

[@josephdillehay3130]

Loved his last endeavor "Little Black Flies", this sounds great. Must see Eddie 9v and his band in CLE.

[@mctavish23]

Lawd. White boy got soul.

[@greggoth6432]

Love this, Brooks. Groove smothered etouffee. Come on back up to Connecticut, it's been a while.

[@Eddie9V]

I always come back!

[@michaelkatz715]
