My old ex-girl hen she laid back to the railroad men
She's got a plan, she's got a plan, and she's got a life to the railroad men
She's got a plan, she's got a plan, and she's got a life to the railroad men
She's got a crew of turtles, painted turtles, box turtles, cane turtles
I see we got stank turtles, mud turtles
Well, hens, go hens, she laid back to the railroad men
Soft shell turtles almost look like a pancake
You take a pancake, you paint it green, and you throw it on a log
That's what a soft shell turtle looks like
Hens, go hens, she laid back to the railroad men
Then we got the two that we eat, the common snapper turtle
And alligator snapper turtle, those two are the good ones
Nine different types of meat on the inside
Everything from a white meat to a black meat, a lot of flavor in there
You take that and you shred it up real, real fine
And you put that in like a soup
You make turtle soup out of that, and you take a little bit of sherry
And you put that in there with the soup and eat it
That's so good to hear
We got shrimp out of these areas, blue claw crabs
And of course my favorite food, the crawfish, ball crawfish
To me it ain't nothing better
You know when you pop open that head and you take the tail out
And you suck all the juice out of the head
Then you eat the tail, then you eat the red potatoes, the garlic, the onions
And washrooms, let's see, some people put cauliflower in there
Sausage, hot dogs, no man, that's my favorite
Okay, where are we going to eat?
We got our ball crawfish
