<pre><font size='+2'>SWAMP WITCH lyrics JIM STAFFORD</font><br>Black water Hattie lived back in the swamp <br />
 Where the strange green reptiles crawl <br />
 Snakes hang thick from the cypress trees <br />
 Like sausage on a smokehouse wall <br />
 Where the swamp is alive with a thousand eyes <br />
 An` all of them watching you <br />
 Stay off the track to Hattie`s Shack in the back of the Black Bayou <br />
  <br />
 Way up the road from Hattie`s Shack <br />
 Lies a sleepy little Okeechobee town <br />
 Talk of swamp witch Hattie lock you in when the sun go down <br />
 Rumours of what she`d done, rumours of what she`d do <br />
 Kept folks off the track of hattie`s shack <br />
 In the back of the Black Bayou <br />
  <br />
 One day brought the rain and the rain stayed on <br />
 And the swamp water overflowed <br />
 `skeeters and the fever grabbed the town like a fist <br />
 Doctor Jackson was the first to go <br />
 Some say the plague wasa brought by Hattie <br />
 There was talk of a hang`n too <br />
 But the talk got shackled by the howls and the cackles <br />
 From the bowels of the Black bayou <br />
  <br />
 Early one morn `tween dark and dawn when shadows filled the sky <br />
 There came an unseen caller on a town where road run dry <br />
 You`d swear there was found a big black round <br />
 Vat full of gurgling brew <br />
  <br />
 Whispering sounds as the folk gathered round <br />
 `It came from the Black Bayou` <br />
 There ain`t much pride when you`re trapped inside <br />
 A slowly sink`n ship <br />
 Scooped up the liquid deep and green <br />
 And the whole town took a sip <br />
 Fever went away and the very next day the skies again were blue <br />
 Let`s thank old hattie for sav`n our town <br />
 We`ll fetch her from the Black Bayou <br />
  <br />
 Party of ten of the town`s best men headed for Hattie`s Shack <br />
 Said Swamp Witch magic was useful and good <br />
 And they`re gonna bring hattie back <br />
 Never found Hattie and they never found the shack <br />
 Never made the trip back in <br />
 There was a parchment note they found tacked to a stump <br />
 Said don`t come look`n again<br><br><a href='http://www.lyricsbay.com' target='_blank'>LyricsBay</a> | <a href="http://www.lyricsbay.com/swamp_witch_lyrics-jim_stafford.html" target='_blank'>SWAMP WITCH lyrics JIM STAFFORD</a></pre>

Black water Hattie lived back in the swamp
Where the strange green reptiles crawl
Snakes hang thick from the cypress trees
Like sausage on a smokehouse wall
Where the swamp is alive with a thousand eyes
An` all of them watching you
Stay off the track to Hattie`s Shack in the back of the Black Bayou

Way up the road from Hattie`s Shack
Lies a sleepy little Okeechobee town
Talk of swamp witch Hattie lock you in when the sun go down
Rumours of what she`d done, rumours of what she`d do
Kept folks off the track of hattie`s shack
In the back of the Black Bayou

One day brought the rain and the rain stayed on
And the swamp water overflowed
`skeeters and the fever grabbed the town like a fist
Doctor Jackson was the first to go
Some say the plague wasa brought by Hattie
There was talk of a hang`n too
But the talk got shackled by the howls and the cackles
From the bowels of the Black bayou

Early one morn `tween dark and dawn when shadows filled the sky
There came an unseen caller on a town where road run dry
You`d swear there was found a big black round
Vat full of gurgling brew

Whispering sounds as the folk gathered round
`It came from the Black Bayou`
There ain`t much pride when you`re trapped inside
A slowly sink`n ship
Scooped up the liquid deep and green
And the whole town took a sip
Fever went away and the very next day the skies again were blue
Let`s thank old hattie for sav`n our town
We`ll fetch her from the Black Bayou

Party of ten of the town`s best men headed for Hattie`s Shack
Said Swamp Witch magic was useful and good
And they`re gonna bring hattie back
Never found Hattie and they never found the shack
Never made the trip back in
There was a parchment note they found tacked to a stump
Said don`t come look`n again
