Sittin' in the bayou country,

just me and my fishin' line

I raised a lot of hell and I hollered,
                
sippin' on that Georgia moonshine

Well, I know how to have a damn good time

And I take my shots

straight out of the jug

and I like to get pure drunk
                     
in that Mississippi mud

Well lets throw us a little party baby,

I'll call a few friends of mine

We'll dance all night till the sun comes up
                                      
and we'll drink our selves completely blind

Then we'll rock on down the line

And I take my shots

straight out of the jug

and I like to do a little dance
                    
in that Mississippi mud

Well, I was raised by an awful alligator

he taught me how to walk the line

He used to deal cards from the bottom of the deck,
                               
but a Tennessee woman took his life

But he sure gave me some damn good advice

And I take my shots

straight out of the jug

and I like to get pure drunk
                    
in that Mississippi mud

And I take my shots

straight out of the jug

and I like to do a little dance
                    
in that Mississippi mud
