Capo 1
All notes are relative to capo

G#, Fdim, Bbm, Eb

G#, Fdim, Bbm, Eb

G#                        Fdim
Way back somewhere in the Florida Everglades
          Bbm                Eb
Where the Alligators Like to sleep in the shade
     G#                    Fdim
It's so dang hot and people wanna sleep
Bbm                       Eb
Countin' the stars or the numbers on the sheep

They got basses, trumpets, a slide trombone
They got a little man playin' the alto saxophone
They play for fun and not for the money
After all it's not for the money, honey

They make the oldies come alive, then you're up on your feet
Then before you know it you're dancin' in the street
To that beat in your head you can't get out
It's so dang catchy, you wanna twist and shout

(chorus)
          C7                    Fm
They're a band with no name, no money, no fame
    Bb7                               Eb
But nobody minds, they get you up and dancin' just the same


When you're stuck in your tightwad jobs
You thought you'd feel better after a few more sobs
But cryin' won't help you've got to come on down
Next to the Alligator alley in town

(chorus)

Now they went down to the Louisiana Bayous
To try their luck down in Baton Rouge
The days were hot, not a single breeze
But they always say they "Aim To Please"

They tried it with the records with not much luck
Because the coporate clones didn't like it too much
They say the people don't like the oldies now
And they came back with "Then why do we draw a crowd"

(chorus)

They crashed on the bus back home
And the only thing that made it was the saxophone
And we don't know where they are right now
But I can gaurantee their still drawin a crowd
