歌曲歌詞
Ko-ko Joe
Uhh
Ko-ko Joe
Go ahead home
Ko-ko Joe
Up in Appaloosa county
There's a place called Ko-ko Ridge
Sittin' right on the bend
On the Etowah River
Where the water washed away the bridge
Cotton Mouth Country
Ko-ko Joe
A river rat's knee high
Ko-ko Joe
Way up around the back border
Lived a man
That the river folks talked about
They said you better stay away from Ko-ko Joe
Cause he's crazy no account
Ko-ko Joe
Ko-ko Joe
They called him the Etowah River swamp rat
The folks despised him
Ko-ko Joe
Ko-ko Joe
He was an awfully peculiar man
The river was his only friend
And the folks didn't understand
The man called Ko-ko Joe
Ko-ko Joe
He'd eat monkey meat and mashed potatoes
He drunk a brew called Mo-jo Claw
That he beat outa roots from old dead stumps
On the banks of the Etowah
Made him walk a little funny
Ko-ko Joe
Made his breath smell funky
Ko-ko Joe
Well he never come across the river
'Cause the folks didn't like him in town
They said his hair was long
His clothes were dirty
They didn't want him hangin' around
Ko-ko Joe Ko-ko Joe
They called him the Etowah River rat
The folks despised him
Ko-ko Joe
Ko-ko Joe
He was an awfully peculiar man
The river was his only friend
And the folks didn't understand
The man called Ko-ko Joe
Ko-ko Joe
Well it happened a year ago Sunday
And they still talk about it today
How the dam broke loose
On the Etowah River
Nearly washin' everybody away
The river water rising
Ko-ko Joe
Washin' up all the bushes
Ko-ko Joe
Well the headlines said
