Well I was born on a Friday in the Florida sun

By the Kissimmee River and before I was one

My mama alligator said to me with a smile

(Okay)

I hold my head up high I keep my feet on the ground
        C           C6           C         C7
I never hurry never worry as I'm strollin' around
      F              F6            F         F7
I can keep a certain tempo that is lazy and sweet

And I don't need shoes 'cuz I've got alligator feet

And what you got goin' is the alligator stroll

C             C7
I don't wanna bite
G7                      C        C7
I use my 75 teeth for a smile so bright
        F         F7       C            C7
You can recognize me by my rose-colored shades
G7
As I make my way through the Everglades
    C         C6    C7    C6
I'm strollin'

Oh oh, bless my soul

What we got goin' is the alligator stroll
C     C6     C     C6
Left, right, left, right

Verse 4:
        C              C6             C            C6
I got a letter from my cousins in the Great Dismal Swamp
     C               C6                        C7
They said they wanna teach me their alligator stomp
F                      F7              F          F7
So I'm strollin' that direction in the way that I do

I hope to reach the Carolinas by the time I'm 82

Chorus:
       F             F7          F                  F7
If you like a little country and some slow rock-and-roll

You can follow right behind me with the alligator stroll
C      C6       C7       C6
(Put on your shades)
(Looks good, follow me)

We're goin' left, right, left, right
       C         C6               C        C7
Give a Hollywood smile with those teeth so white
F                 F7    F     F7
Now stroll to the left, back, forth
          C                C6          C7          C6
Now we're strollin' to the right (step South, step North)
          G7
Now we're strollin' straight ahead in an alligator row
                               G7
And every now and then we do a little do-si-do
G7
Rock, roll, rock, roll
                        nc
All the way to Carolina with the alligator
C     C6   C7   C   C6    C7   C6    C
