BAYOU BOOGALOO

C. Shells – “C. Shells” CD/Cassette

1. Gaston Gator, friendly alligator, down in the Louisiana bayou

Gaston Gator, lonely alligator, ‘cause his friends were few

When he flashed his pearly whites,

All the little creatures would run in fright

Poor Gaston so very, very lonely, didn’t know what to do

2. Gaston Gator heard the little birdies singing in the cypress tree

“All beware of the blue bayou,” they twitter cautiously

At the blue bayou in the Louisiana swamp,

All the reptiles gather for a reptile romp

“Stay away,” warned the birds in fright, “from this alligator party.”

And they all sang…

CHORUS: Under the Cajun moon so blue, the reptiles have a rendezvous

Every alligator who’s who, is at the Bayou Boogaloo

Woo hoo! At the Bayou Boogaloo

3. Gaston Gator swimming in the swamp, lookin’ for the blue bayou

See someone he’d like to be friends with, say, “How do you do?”

He smile and give his great big grin

But all they saw were teeth from cheek to chin

And they all ran away from him, he was lonely through and through

4. When Gaston Gator found the bayou,

There were happy reptiles everywhere

Must have been a million crocodilian, turtles dance without a care

All the snakes did the shimmy, shimmy shake

Lizard’s danced so hard that their tails would break

When the gators did the chomp, chomp stomp

He did the chomp, chomp stomp right there

Chomp, chomp stomp. Chomp, chomp stomp.

We will, we will crock you. We will, we will crock you

5. Now Gaston Gator, happy alligator, happy as a gator can be

See a beautiful lady alligator under the cypress tree

And when he flashed his pearly whites, she hissed at him in pure delight

And they hissed and they kissed in the blue moonlight

For they found true love you see

CHORUS: Under the Cajun moon so blue, Gaston gator say, “I do.”

Cherie Gator say, “Me, too.”

At the Bayou Boogaloo. Woo hoo!
