Gator Claus

Prelude

Come on down,where the swamp is bright

Moss hangs low from the cypress limb

Way back where the waters get dim

A scaly figure cruises by

Green gold gleam in his wicked eye

Skinny, green, he grins so wide

Gator Claus is comin' tonight

Chorus

You all welcome to the swamp

Gator Claus grinnin', dressed up head to toe

Santa red suit, but he's scaly and lean

Skinny and green, with a big toothy grin

In his red Santa Claus robe, he says let the holiday begin!

Big teeth gleamin', shoutin' out loud MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Christmas

Verse 1

He slides through the moss with a sack full of treats

Candy Cane Crawfish and swamp-made sweets

His claws wiggle-waggle with a holiday cheer

He licks his lips sayin', "Glad y'all are here!"Okay

Gator Claus grins',and invites you all in

Jingle bell necklace, his scales in a spin

Says, 'Dinner time's near, let the party begin!'

Verse 2

Candy Canes on the lily pads floatin’

Eggnog with a pinch of, potion

He’ll serve you gumbo, with a smile

Stay any longer, you might stay awhile

Pre-Chorus

Ho ho whoa, swampy cheer

Snap-snap laughs and holiday fear

Chorus

You all welcome to the swamp

Gator Claus grinnin', dressed up head to toe

Santa red suit, but he's scaly and lean

Skinny and green, with a big toothy grin

In his red Santa Claus robe, he says let the holiday begin!

Big teeth gleamin', shoutin' out loud MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Christmas

Bridge

Swamp lights dancing,’ on the water so bright

Gator Claus snappin,’ by firefly light

He’ll twirl his tail, stompin’ his feet

Triangle jingles, he brings the heat

Laughin’ so wild, slappin’ his knee

Y’all, it’s a Cajun Christmas jamboree

Instrumental

Verse 3

Gator Claus hollers, “Get on in line!

We got jambalaya, and some moonshine!”

He flips his hat, and shows all his teeth

Then he winks, and invites you in

He starts humming, a loud tune,

and shakes his butt

Maybe you're a guest

Maybe you're a snack

He says, "Sit at my table, you all dig in.

And if you're all lucky, you'll make it to the end

Post-Chorus

Chomp, chomp

Hey

Chomp, chomp

Ho

Chorus

You all welcome to the swamp

Gator Claus grinnin', dressed up head to toe

Santa red suit, but he's scaly and lean

Skinny and green, with a big toothy grin

In his red Santa Claus robe, he says let the holiday begin!

Big teeth gleamin', shoutin' out loud MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Christmas

Outro

So follow him under, the cypress tree

Where laughter, and howlin’ are wild and free

One more shout, a swampy delight

“Merry Christmas to y’all—and goodnight!”

Chomp, chomp

Chomp, chomp

Chomp, chomp
