[Intro]
Am Am Am G Am
Am Am Am G Am
[Verse]
Am C
Down in the bayous of Louisiana,
G Am
Where the swamp moss grows on the back of your hand.
C
Papa set out from our one-room shack,
G Am
Said he went fishin' but he never came back.
Am C
And Mama said "Son, don't you ever go out
G Am
To Leroux swamp when the sun goes down.
C
Creature down there called the Parlangua,
G Am
He got your brother, now he's got your Pa.”
[Chorus]
C G
The Parlangua's the swamp boogie man
Am F C
Half alligator and the other half man.
Em F
Son don't go when you hear the call:
Am Em Am
Of the swamp water booger, the Parlangua.
[Verse]
Am C
I told my mama, "Gotta make things right,
G Am
Going huntin' down in Leroux swamp tonight.
C
The stories that the old men told to me,
G Am
You gotta stick it with a stick from a sweet gum tree."
Am C
A whippoorwill cried and I prayed to God,
G Am
Then I headed for the swamp in a cold gray fog.
Am C
Hours passed, it was drizzling' rain,
G C
When I realized that I had lost my way.
[Chorus]
C G
The Parlangua's the swamp boogie man
Am F C
Half alligator and the other half man.
Em F
Son don't go when you hear the call:
Am Em Am
Of the swamp water booger, the Parlangua.
[Verse]
Am C
A chillin' fear inside of me
G Am
As I whittled off a stick from a sweet gum tree.
Am C
Spanish moss hanging all around,
G Am
Stoppin' to listen at every sound.
Em Am
I stumbled and fell tangled up in vines,
C Am
Fear and panic shootin' through my mind.
Em Am F
Tried to rise and then I heard him scream:
C Em Am
The Parlangua standin' over me.
[Instrumental]
Am Am Am G Am

[Verse]
Am C
Down on the bayous of Lousiana,

Her boy went huntin' but he never came back
[Chorus]
