A Sugarland Raid

Lyrics:

Snake stick, you better run quick
Hide your likker up Lufty Creek
You been helling around, but you're gonna be found
By the forked tongue of the snake stick

Snake stick, you better run quick
Hide your likker up Lufty Creek
No finer sport than hunting man
Better get back to the sugarland

Snake stick, you better run quick
Hide your likker up Lufty Creek
Run ol' Ruff, make an exit Buck,
Tell ol' Jake he's out of luck

CHORUS
A monkey chased a lizard ridin'
On the rattling tail of the snake stick
Stabbed at him with a devil's trident
On the rattling tail of the snake stick
